If I held a flame
For those who hurt in vain
Would you believe in me?
If I trusted you
And bared my soul to you
Would you deceive me?
If I failed to do
What I set out to do
Would you run out
Hold the candle tight
Would you run out
Wait until it's right

CHORUS
Hold on to love, hold on to me
Hold on to love, hold on to me

If we start to think
About the winds of change
Would you believe in me?
If a shadow fell
And told us time will tell
Would you deceive me?

If I couldn't say
The words I wanted to say
Would you run out?
Hold the candle tight
Would you run out?
Wait until it's right

CHORUS
