Hold On To Me
Incognito Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(J.P. Maunick)

You try to take things easy, but your mind out of control begins to wander
Will there ever come a time, this searching and this waiting will be over

See our love can come and go
But there's something you should know
Chorus:
If you're looking for somebody
Who will always be there for you
Hold on (I'm the one)
If you really need somebody
Who will always take care of you
Hold on (Hold on to me)

I was made to love you and the voices in my heart they keep me knowing
You've got to give me time
All I'm asking is the chance to prove my loving

I got this feeling going on, taking hold of me so strong

Chorus x 2

I was made to love you, I know that much is true
I was made to love (you)

I got this feeling going on, taking hold of me so strong





Chorus (Fade)
