Hold of Me

Walkin' slowly, tryin' to find a place to go

You begin to talk about your ex

And the way that he would lose control

And all your friends are trying to throw me

They're asking questions I don't know

But, baby, I would buy you drinks, too

But I don't think you need no more

Then you said, "I need nothin' from nobody"

I can see it on your face, you're hurting

Grab a hold of me

I said, "Baby, can't you see

That your past is your past?"

Oh, babe, you've got a hold of me

You've got a hold of me (Oh, oh, ho)

'Cause your past is your past (Oh, ho)

Oh, babe, you've gotta hold me (Oh, ho)

I'm tryin' to figure you out

As you're starin' straight back at me

And you tell me you don't like your father

'Cause he would never let you be

And now you're standin' beside the window

You're covered in the light from the street

And I say that it gets cold here in winter

Do you want my coat? You'll freeze

Then you said, "I need nothin' from nobody"

I can see it on your face, you're hurting

Grab a hold of me (Ooh)

Oh, baby, can't you see

That your past is your past?

Oh, babe, you've got a hold of me

You've got a hold of me (Oh, oh, ho)

'Cause your past is your past (Oh, ho)

Oh, babe, you've gotta hold me (Oh, ho)

You've been holdin' on so long

You keep pushin' me out

You don't know where you belong

So you say to me now

"I need nothin' from nobody"

But I can see it on your face, you're hurting

Grab a hold of me

I said, "Baby, can't you see

That your past is your past?"

Oh, babe, you've got a hold of me

You've got a hold on me (Oh, oh, ho)

'Cause your past is your past (Oh, ho)

Oh, babe, you've gotta hold me (Oh, ho)

Oh, oh, ho

Oh, ho

Oh, ho
