Hold Onto Love

(album: Greetings From The Neon Frontier - 2018)

When I met you I was just a kid
Holes in my pockets, didn't care where I've been
Then you picked me up, said, "Baby, let's get clean"
You don't turn around when you walk away
You don't close your eyes when you hear 'em say
Those city lights will blind you if you stare

This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love

You told me when you were 23
You'd rather stop your heart than watch it bleed
But I'm still dying, lying on your floor
Looking up, tryna find the stars
But it's hard to sleep through all these scars
When you told me to shine, that's when you set me free
Yeah, yeah

This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love

The years keep coming
Oh, the years keep coming
I keep coming, howling out your name

Make it end
Oh make it begin again
I will make it end
Oh make it begin again, hey, hey

This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold on
You've gotta hold, baby, you've got to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold on
Ooh, hold onto love
Hold onto love
