Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If the sun should fall from Heaven
Would you rescue me?
Give me eyes to see?
And if I lose the joy of living
Would you feel my need?
Would you rescue me?
[PreChorus]
Well, I've had love, both good and bad
From all the love I've had
I've learned something, baby
Something 'bout me
It's gotta be
[Chorus]
One woman
To hold on to
Baby, through the good and the bad
We all know that a man needs
One woman
To hold on to
Maybe that woman is you
[Verse 2]
And when the world turns cold and friendless
Will you reach for me?
'Cause you know that I'll be there
When the tears you cry are endless
Lady, don't cry in vain
You know I'll ease your pain
[PreChorus]
'Cause I've got open arms for you
A heart that's always true
Love has opened up my eyes
To the one thing I need
It's gotta be
[Chorus]
One woman
To hold on to
Baby, through the good and the bad
We all know that a man needs
One woman
To hold on to
Maybe that woman is you
[Bridge]
And with everything I got
Baby, I'm holding on
With what I am and what I'm not
Baby, I'm holding on
With every breath and every thought
Holding on
One woman
One woman
[PreChorus]
'Cause I've got open arms for you
A heart that's always true
Love has opened up my eyes
To the one thing I need
It's gotta be
[Chorus]
One woman
To hold on to
Baby, through the good and the bad
We all know that a man needs
One woman
To hold on to
Baby, that woman is you
[Outro]
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
One woman
