Hold On A Little Bit Longer

(album: It's Only Love - 1967)

Hold on a little bit longer,
Hold on a little bit longer,
Hold on a little bit longer 'cause I'm coming home to you.

I've been gone such a long, long time.
Girl, I hope and pray that-a you're still mine.
'Cause I know it's not easy being true
When you've got no one to give your loving to.
So, baby, just
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer, 'cause I'm coming home to you.

I know guys give you the eye.
There were many-a time you could've told me goodbye.
But I know you never cheated, no-oh, you never lied
And there were nights you stayed home and cried.
So, baby, just
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer, 'cause I'm coming home to you.

When I come home, I'm gonna love you every night and day.
When we're alone, I'll make it seem like I've never been away.
You just gotta
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on just a little bit longer, 'cause I'm coming home to you.

Hold on just a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on just a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on just a little bit longer,
(Hold on) hold on a little bit longer.
