She was holdin' on so tight
But why do we still have to say goodbye?
She's all alone tonight
There's nothin' I could do to make it right

Is it ever gonna be, ever gonna be brighter?
Is it ever gonna be, ever gonna be easier?

Hold her tonight
Oh, God, would you hold her tonight?
'Cause I'm not there to stay close
Keep watch, tell her she's not alone
Hold her tonight

We're apart but not alone
My love for her is more than she could know
A secret place only we can go
And we'll laugh while we will hope until we're home

Is it ever gonna be, ever gonna be brighter?
Is it ever gonna be, ever gonna be easier?

Hold her tonight
Oh, God, would you hold her tonight?
'Cause I'm not there to stay close, keep watch, tell her she's not alone
Hold her tonight

Steady on, steady on, my love
This shall soon pass
Steady on, steady on, my love
This shall soon pass
Steady on, steady on, my love
This shall soon pass
Steady on, steady on, my love

Hold her tonight
Oh, God, would you hold her tonight?
'Cause I'm not there to stay close
Keep watch, tell her again she's not alone
Hold her tonight
Hold her tonight
Oh, God, would you hold her tonight?
'Cause I'm not there to stay close
Keep watch, tell her she's not alone
Stay close, keep watch, tell her she's not alone
Hold her tonight
