Hold On Yes I, yes I, yes I will hold You don't look too surprised that once more I'm on my own You're never taking sides cause you know my side's always wrong And so I try to keep my head and feel no pain even if I can't help to feel it's all in vain Oh yes I know it's true but I am stricken all the same It's just what I must do at last that's what I've been told Oh but this time I will hold I will be holding on I'll hold - and tell myself I'll be that strong I'll hold – even if I'm left alone What was yesterday today seems so long ago and what I thought I can't forget I even can't remember now And so I try to make at least myself believe Even if I know that's the best I will achieve Oh yes I know it's true but it's more than I can bear It's just what I must do at last that's what I've been told Oh but this time I will hold I will be holding on I'll hold - and tell myself I'll be that strong I'll hold - even if I'm left alone I'll hold – I'm holdin' on yes I, yes I, yes I will hold I only can guess – what happens if I say yes What will be left of my dreams – of my self esteem What will be the price – the sacrifice oh no I don't dare to ask – cause my only task is to hold I will be holding on I'll hold - and tell myself I'll be that strong I'll hold - even if I'm left alone I'll hold yes I, yes I, yes I will hold
