Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There you have it
You see this love regretting
There's something wrong again
But you had it in the palm of your hand
Your heart has started bleeding
You gotta get out, you're leaving
You're on your own forever
It's not the space or time or weather
[Verse 2]
You can leave, you want, you can't have
You need, you can't touch
You plead, it's enough, it's enough
[Verse 3]
There's something happening to ya
Love can see right through ya
In a world of make believe
Don't go throwing it all away
[Verse 4]
Hold on to love, hold on to love
Treat it as a good thing
Be always ready with that electric feeling
[Verse 5]
You work so hard to be in love with her
She tries so hard, you gotta let it go
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
[Verse 6]
The more and more you hear it
The more it seems to make sense
To hold love in the palm of your hand
But you think that round the corner
They're queuing up to hold her
But that won't make a difference in the end
There's never space or time or weather
[Verse 7]
You can leave, you want, you can't have
You need, you can't touch
You plead, it's enough, it's enough
[Verse 8]
There's something happening to ya
Love can see right through ya
In a world of make believe
Don't go throwing it all away
[Verse 9]
Hold on to love, there's nothing more important
Treat it as a good thing
Be always ready with that electric feeling
[Verse 10]
You work so hard to be in love with her
She tries so hard, you gotta let it go
Hold on, hold on
Baby, hold on, hold on
[Verse 11]
You work so hard to be in love with her
She tries so hard, you gotta let it go
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, baby, hold on
Hold on, hold on
[Verse 12]
Hold on to love, there's nothing more important
Hold on to love, don't let it pass you by
Hold on to love, there's nothing so important
Hold it in the palm of your hand, yeah, yeah
[Verse 13]
Hold on to love, there's nothing more important
Hold on to love, don't ever let it pass you by
Hold on to love, hold on to love
Treat it as a good thing
Treat it as a good thing, treat it as a good, good thing
