Chris Norman - Hold On lyrics

rate me

There was a young soldier

He thought he could live forever

He married a teacher

Who took him for worse or better

She was true to her man

Who was sent to a land full of danger

His head in the sand

And his life in the hands of a stranger

Chorus:

Hold on, hold on, hold on together

Hold on, hold on,

Hold on, hold on, lean on each other

The world has gone colder

We can make it together

I once met a man

Who said that his journey was ended

And that his heart

Was broken and could not be mended

The young politician,

So busily learning his lies

He couldn't begin

To hide all the shame in his eyes

Chorus

I saw people riot

I swear that the streets were a-swimmin'

In the blood of the men

That mixed with the tears of the women

It's makin' me cry

Till I can't breathe any longer

I'm wonderin' why

Our hearts wouldn't beat any stronger

Chorus twice:

Hold on, hold on, hold on together

Hold on, hold on,

Hold on, hold on, we need each other

The world has gone colder

We can make it together
