Hold Out — текст песни (Browne Jackson)

Baby I guess you know my story
Baby I guess you know my side
It seems I`ve traded love for glory
But I`m still not satisfied
Given all the years
All the cries and cheers
Don`t amount to much more than pride
Take my love for you
Take tomorrow too
There`s not much left inside
How we laughed when we first knew love
Singing dum-de-lum-de-lie
I taught you how to see life through love
Then I taught you how to cry
And though I must have known
How easily love is thrown
I took some chances, I don`t know why
There`s not much you can do
You wish that I`d been true
Darlin` so do I
Now you better hold out
Go on and hold out
Go ahead and hold out
For what you know love can be
Move on and hold out
Don`t let your love be sold out
If there`s anyone who knows about it
Baby that`s me
Ahh you`re right
You can`t forget the way I lied
Time has seen you grow
To lead your life alone
Though you tried and tried
Cried and cried
Baby I guess you know my story
Maybe there`s not much left to say
You know the more we talk the more we
Turn each other`s hearts away
Now I`ll be leaving in the morning
Leaving half of me behind
To find the pieces life`s been torn in
And take whatever love I find
But you better hold out
Go on and hold out
Just walk away and hold out
For what you know love can be
Move on and hold out
Don`t let your love be sold out
It`s starting to be cold out
For people who live like me
Move on and hold out
And somewhere later no doubt
Someone just like you baby, wait and see...
