Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
You know that only time can tell

What is it in me that refuses to believe
This isn't easier than the real thing
My love you know that you're my best friend
You know that I'd do anything for you
And my love let nothing come between us
My love for you is strong and true
Am I in heaven here or am I
At the crossroads I am standing

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
That you'll be strong tomorrow
And we'll see another day
And we will praise it
And love the light that brings a smile across your face

Oh, god if you're out there won't you hear me
I know we've never talked before
And, oh, god the man I love is leaving
Won't you take him when he comes to your door
Am I in heaven here or am I in hell
At the crossroads I am standing

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
That you'll be strong tomorrow
And we'll see another day
And we will praise it
And love the light that brings a smile across your face

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell
