Hold On (To What We've Got) [Single Version]

While I'm away from you

I know it's hard for you, baby

And a lot of times

You're tempted to do things that you're not willing to do

And I could write you a letter every day

And still not express the true feeling I have

In my heart, in my soul, and in my body for you

And that's why

I guess I just ain't ready

To write all the things I feel for you

No ladder could be steady

While I climb the sky to get to you

And ain't nothing I could say or do

To prove my love I have for you

That's why I say

"Hold on to what we've got

Feel the love I have in my heart for you

Hold on to what we've got

Someday I know you will agree now"

I'm sitting here holding this paper

Tryna think of something I can say

That will assure you I still need you

Even though, even though I'm so far away

And I pray every day and every night

Lord, make everything alright

That's why I say

"Hold on to what we've got

Feel the love I have in my heart, dear

Oh, hold on to what we've got

And someday I know you will agree"

Hold on to what we've got
