Hold on to me, hold on to me
Hold on to me, hold on to me

Oh, my love, don't you know a better time is here?
And we've gotta hold on to it
We've gotta hold on to it

So hold me close and promise you'll never let me go
You've gotta hold on to me
You've gotta hold on to me
You've gotta hold on to me
You've gotta hold on to me

If I'm overworked, love me when I'm overweight
We've gotta hold on to this
Yeah, we've gotta hold on to this
Yeah, we've gotta hold on to this
Yeah, we've gotta hold on to this

I can hear the church bells ring
As everything falls into its place
So hold on, hold on
Time will kiss away the scars
That mark our feet from running in place
For so long, hold on

And if someone turned the light off on the city streets
Would your heart know how to find me?
Could it guide your feet?
And if the day should come when we can find no peace
We'll just keep begging to be baptized

In the sunlight, in the sunlight
In the sunlight, in the sunlight

I can hear the church bells ring
As everything falls into its place
Hold on, hold on
Time will kiss away the scars
That mark our feet from running in place
For so long, hold on
