You know, of all the things in the world i'd miss |
|
It would probably be music and love |
|
They say you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone |
|
That's so true |
|
Even though we still take it for granted |
|
And i used to be like that but not anymore |
|
'cause i found out what love really means |
|
Love means happiness and dedication |
|
Love will sometimes bring complications |
|
But you must have faith and a whole lot of trust |
|
Most of all you can never give up just |
|
(hold on, hold on) |
|
Hold on to your good thing, yeah |
|
(hold on, hold on) forget about the small things |
|
(hold on, hold on) do it for love, do it for love |
|
And remember that love is a feeling |
|
But it's also an action, yes |
|
You've got to give sometime |
|
If you want to get back some, well |
|
And when all the king's horses |
|
And even all the king's men |
|
Can't put it together again |
|
That is exactly when you've got to |
|
(hold on, hold on) hold on to what you've got |
|
(hold on, hold on) |
|
It's the little things that mean alot |
|
(hold on, hold on) do it for love, do it for love |
|
In spite of everything, no matter what |
|
You've got to h-o-l-d on (you gotta hold on) |
|
Hold on, hmm, hmm, hmm, ooh, oh, oh |
|
You're so hard headed |
|
'cause you feel that you're right |
|
Well, tell me how you gonna feel |
|
In the middle of the night |
|
All alone, all alone |
|
I know, i know |
|
It doesn't matter who's right or wrong |
|
If you feel so inclined |
|
To blame that shame on someone else |
|
Ooh, stop and think about it |
|
Point the finger at yourself |
|
Ooh, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo |
|
Hold on to your good thing (hold on) |
|
Forget about the small (hold on) things |
|
(hold on) and hold on |
|
Hold on, oh hold on (hold on) |
|
Real tight in spite of everything |
|
Hold on (hold on) |
|
When you feel like walking out that door |
