When the world is cold and lonely
And you wish someone could only save you somehow
When in this life we're living
You can't find one forgiving face in the crowd
You want to cry out loud
That's when I need to hold on tight to you
I've been known to lose my place
And just when my world wants to fall apart
Your love's the only thing I've ever known that can save me
Save me a place in your heart
When every dream forsaken
And every road not taken calls to me now
When all my nights are haunted
By the way I thought I wanted life to turn out
When/And I'm lost in doubt
That's when I need to hold on tight to you
Sometimes I feel just like I'm drifting out to sea
And when I'm thinking there's no way back
You reach out for me
That's when I need to hold on tight to you
