Lyrics
[Chorus]
In heaven's name, why are you walking away?
Hang on to your love
In heaven's name, why do you play these games?
Hang on to your love
[Verse 1]
Take time if you're down on luck
It's so easy to walk out on love
Take your time if the going gets tough
It's so precious
[PreChorus]
So if you want it to get stronger
You'd better not let go
You gotta hold on longer
If you want your love to grow
Gotta stick together
Hand in glove
Hold on tight, don't fight
Hang on to your love
[Chorus]
In heaven's name, why are you walking away?
Hang on to your love
In heaven's name, why do you play these games?
Hang on to your love
[Verse 2]
Be brave when the journey is rough (Be brave)
It's not easy when you're in love
Don't be ashamed when the going gets tough (Be brave)
It's not easy, don't give up
[PreChorus]
If you want it to get stronger
You'd better not let go
You gotta hold on longer
If you want your love to grow
Gotta stick together
Hand in glove
Hold on tight, don't fight
Hang on to your love
[Chorus]
In heaven's name, why are you walking away?
Hang on to your love
In heaven's name, why do you play these games?
Hang on to your love
[Bridge]
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, lee-dee-da
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, lee-dee-da
[Bridge]
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, lee-dee-da
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, lee-dee-da
[PreChorus]
So if you want it to get stronger
You'd better not let go
You gotta hold on longer
If you want your love to grow
Gotta stick together
Hand in glove
Hold on tight, don't fight
Hang on to your love
[Chorus]
In heaven's name, why are you walking away?
Hang on to your love
In heaven's name, why do you play these games?
Hang on to your love
[Verse 3]
When you find a love (Hang on to your love)
Don't let it walk away (Hang on)
Oh, when you find your love (Hang on to your love)
You've got to make it stay (Hang on)
[Bridge]
Hang on to your love
Don't let it walk away (Hang on)
Oh, when you find your love (Hang on to your love)
Ooh, got to make it stay (Hang on)
[Bridge]
You've got to hang on to your love (To your love)
You've got to hang on to your love (To your love)
[Bridge]
Hang on
Why are you walking away? (Why are you walking away, walking away)
Hang on
Why do you play these games? (Why do you play these games?)
[Outro]
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da (Hang on to your love)
Da, da-da, lee-dee-da
Da, lee-dee-da (Hang on to your love)
