A Pragmatic Introspection
Hold your seconds, as they pass
coz they are the mentor
you take care of that miniature eternity
and they will take care of your hours
Hold your breath, for a moment to feel
what fragrance the world has for you
you relish every iota of the bulk you take
as they are the babbler, nascent and not fake
Hold your desires, within yourself sometimes
to let others go ahead with their dreams
you menawhile strengthen the urge to progress
coz sometimes failure for other's sake surpasses success
Hold your emotions, prevent the spill
coz it gives you reason for the time to kill
but never scruple to detonate for joy of others
even if you are unwell, and agony smothers
Hold yourself,
coz there are chances for you to change
time teaches and gives you space
to get embedded in the society
and even embrace solace
as the life seems failure to those
who live in the past and the dreams
but to a selected few, it is like a klaxon
which ceaselessly filters the oppurtunity and screams.

Paper
Hold the paper up to the light
(some rays pass right through)
Expose yourself out there for a minute
(some rays pass right through)
Take a little rest when the rays pass through
Take a little time off when the rays pass through
Go ahead and mis it up...go ahead and tie it up
In a long distance telephone call
Hold on to that paper
Hold on to that paper
Hold on becuase its been taken care of
Hold on to that paper
See if you can fit it on the paper
See if you can get it on the paper
See if you can fit it on the paper
See if you can get it on the paper
Had a love affair but it was only paper
(some rays they pass right through)
Had a lot of fun, could have been a lot better
(some rays they pass right through)
Take a little consideration, take every combination
Take a few weeks off, make it tighter, tighter
But it was never, it was never written down
Still might be a chance that it might work out (if you)
Hold on to that paper
Hold on to that paper
Hold on because itll be taken care of
Hold on to that paper
Dont think I can fit it on the paper
Dont think I can get it on the paper
Go ahead and rip up, rip up the paper
Go ahead and tear up, tear up the paper

On The Outside
I may appear to be fit and strong
but that impression is completely wrong.
My grip on life is becoming less each day
and I can’t hold things in the normal way.
If I need to pee I have to go straight a way
where once I could hold it for hours each day.
I also cannot concentrate like I used to do
and a thought only lasts for a moment or two.
I once held dear the memories of my childhood days,
but now I can’t even remember what I was about to say.
At one time I could hold my breath for a very long time,
now I’d be lucky if I could hold it for a count of nine.
There’s another thing I can’t hold my alcohol like I used to do,
what I don’t spill goes to my head, or straight down the loo.
But I have found something I can hold for twice as long,
besides the obvious, it’s the new found ability to hold my tongue.

In The Air Tonight
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Hold on
I've been waiting for this moment, all my life, Hold on
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, Hold on, Hold on
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Hold on
I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Hold on
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Hold on, Hold on
And I've been waiting for this moment all my life, Hold on, Hold on
Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget, it's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show; but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you or me
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Hold on...

Hold Me Now
(gordon kennedy/tommy sims)
(track 8 - time 3:15)
Oopsie daisy Im losin my mind
Hold me now, hold me now
Clock on the wall says
Im outta time
Hold me now, hold me now
I gotta reason but
Im all outta rhyme
Hold me now, hold me now
Sometimes the answers are just so hard to find
Hold me now
When my grip on the day
Starts slippin away
If Im gonna fall at all
Im gonna fall in love with you
Here I go Im fallin again
Hold me now, hold me now
It always happens when your love comes in
Hold me now, hold me now
My hopes and dreams have been left out in the cold
Hold me now, hold me now
Feels like the world is spinnin outta control
Hold me now
When my grip on the day (when my grip on the day)
Starts slippin away (starts slippin away)
If Im gonna fall at all
Im gonna fall in love with you
Here I go Im fallin again
Hold me now, hold me now
It all gets better when your love comes in
Hold me now
Im gonna fall in love with you
Here I go Im fallin again
Hold me now, hold me now
It always happens when your love comes in
Hold me now, hold me now
Here I go Im fallin again
Hold me now, hold me now
It all gets better when your love comes in
Hold me now, hold me now
Hold me now

Love Has A Hold On Me
I have found a perfect mystery
Love has a hold on me
Long before my life had come to be
Love had a hold on me
Love has a hold on me
Where do I come from
Where does life mean
Is it not to know the one who made me
As Im looking down the road ahead
Love has a hold on me
Someday when I breathe my dying breath
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me
Where will I go
When this life is through
Back into the light that made me and you
Love has a hold on me
Something opened up my eyes to see
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me
I dont have answers to all the questions
Running inside of my mind
But I cant help believe that
Understanding comes in time
Love has a hold on me
Something opened up my eyes to see
Love has a hold on me
Love has a hold on me
If I run, if I hide, I know inside
Your love has a hold on me
Tell me yes, tell me no, my heart will follow
Your love has a hold on me
If I run, if I hide
Your love has a hold on me
Your love has a hold on me
Your love has a hold on me
Hold on me

Hold On
Justice to the left of you
Justice to the right
Speak when you are spoken to
Dont pretend youre right
This lifes not for living
Its for fighting and for war
No matter what the truth is
Hold on to what is yours
Jigsaw puzzle traitors
Set to spill the beans
Constitution screw up
Shattering the dreams
Blood flows in the desert
Dark citadels burning too
Watch! look over your shoulder
This one is strictly for you
Hold on - hold on
Wait maybe the answers
Looking for you
Hold on - hold on
Wait! take you time
Think it through
Yes! I can make it through
Hold on - hold on
Sunshine shine on through
Hold on - hold on
Sunshine shine on you
See it through
Talk the simple smile
Such platonic eye
How they drown in incomplete capacity
Strangest of them all
When the feeling calls
How we drown in stylistic audacity
Charge the common ground
Round and round and round
We living in gravity
Shake - we shake so hard
How we laugh so loud
When we reach
We believe in eternity
I believe in eternity
Hold on - hold on
Wait - take your time
Sunshine shine on through
See it through
Hold on - hold on
Wait - maybe a chance
Sunshine shine on through
Is looking for you
Sunshine shine on you
Hold on - hold on
Hold on - hold on
Sunshine - shine on shine on you
Sunshine - shine on through
Sunshine - shine on shine on through
Sunshine - shine on you

The Messenger
Look around
Give your eyes a new adventure
What you see
Is a mix of past and future
Your moment
Is coming
Hold on/hold on
How you gonna be when they tell the story
Everything we took
Was it from each other
Hold on/hold on
Its to late to get around it
Say goodbye to how we found it
This is what we least expected
Dont you put the blame on the messenger
Ive seen the flames
That lick at survival
Check your dreams
Into the justice hotel
The moment
Is coming
Hold on
Hold on

Surgery
I can change I can cut it open
Look at me the way you did before
I can change
diagnose the symptom
buy the anecdote but not the cure
Hold me under
cut away this empty
Hold me under
change the way I feel about you
I can change
I'll correct the defect
repair the injury called you and me
I can change
I'll surrender to it
I can suffer with the best of them
Hold me under
cut away this empty
Hold me under
change the way I feel about you
I can't change
I'll replace the decay
make you second guess your everyday
I can't change
I'll survey the damage
Kill the narcissist with his reflection
until tomorrow
Hold me under
cut away this empty
Hold me under
change the way I feel about you
Hold me under
cut away this empty
Hold me under
change the way I feel about you
until tomorrow

Because Of You
well i see the color in your eyes
they set me free, they get me high
no sister flower will be denied, girl
the heat of affection, a fragile mind
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
and i feel the warmth in your touch
my ego trips, i cant get enough
that satisfaction lies in your, girl
i wrote this song, so you'll understand
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold longer) my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold longer) my dreams came true

because of you (hold)

Dangerous Game
They gave me a life thats not so easy to live
And then they sent me on my way
I left my loving, forgot my dreams
I lost them along the way
Those little things you say
When words mean so much
You never back down
And they all shy away
You always listen to me
And what do I care to get me through these sleepless nights
And what do I have to hold when no ones there to hold me tight
And what do I see the only thing that gets me through this is I feel and I feel you
And this aint no bitterness
Then Id rose just the same
Got this road short and can be long
Another endless day, another seven hundred miles thatll take me further from my home
Those little things you say
When words mean so much
You never back down
And they all shy away
You always listen to me
And what do I care to get me through these sleepless nights
And what do I have to hold when no ones there to hold me tight
And what do I see the only thing that gets me through this is I feel and I feel you
I know what youre going through now
Believe me I live this
And what do I care to get me through these sleepless nights
And what do I have to hold when no ones there to hold me tight

Hold On To Your Dream
In life we have our pains and sorrows
Face mountains we think we can't climb
Nothing can there's always tomorrow
You feel like giving up, you say you're out of luck
But then you hear a voice in your mind
Telling you to
Hold on to your dream
Cause they're always worth having
Hold on to your dream
Like a father to his son
Don't let anyone ever steal your joy from you
Hold on to your dream
till the day that life is said and done
This world is filled peaks and valleys
With rivers we think we can't cross
To busy keeping sorrows telling
You say you're at you're in
You say you never win
But then a light comes on in your mind
Till you
Hold on to your dream
Cause they're always worth having
Hold on to your dream
Like a father to his son
Don't let anyone ever steal your joy from you
Hold on to your dream
Until the day that life is said and done
If you wanna hold on to something
You better hold on to your dreams
If you want to hold on to something
You've gotta hold to your love
To your love
So if they try to burst your bubble
It's cons they haven't done em all
And when you feel you are in trouble
Hold your head up high and feel your heart inside
And know that you are never alone
Just as long as you
Hold on to your dream
Cause they're always worth having
Hold on to your dream
Like a father to his son
Don't let anyone ever steal your joy from you
Hold on to your dream
till the day that life is said and done
Hold on to your dream
Cause they're always worth having
Hold on to your dream
Like a mother to her child
Don't let anyone ever steal your dreams from you
Hold on to your dream
And do your best to always wear a smile
Hold on to your dream

Sell My Soul
How do you feel
How do you hate
How do you wake up with the smile thats on your face
Out on the moon
If I was an astronaut could I get back to you?
Im out of my head
Im out of excuses so Im staring at the bed
And its you
Its you...
I hold on, I hold on
(I cant let go)
And you dont know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(Id sell my soul)
And you dont know how I feel
Losing my heart
Losing my pride
Id burn our initials in the sun if it would shine
I need a fresh start
I was in heaven until this one fell apart
Out on the run
Out on this empty space since all of this begun
I try
I try...
I hold on, I hold on
(I cant let go)
And you dont know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(Id sell my soul)
And you dont know how I feel
Hold on, hold on
(I cant let go...)
And you dont how I feel
And nothing seems to help
And nothing seems to work
And nothing isnt beautiful
Im old enough to take all the blame for all of us
Theres all the games and all the faces
Im bleeding by myself and Im okay...
Hold on, I hold on
(I cant let go)
And you dont know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(Id sell my soul)
And you dont know how I feel
Hold on, I hold on
(I cant let go)
And you dont know how I feel
I hold on
(I cant let go...)
And you dont know how I feel

Wish On Me
Now it's time to say goodbye
But I'll always be there in your mind
We've had our time, so let's not cry
Whenever you wander, never wonder why
And I hope that sometimes, you'll look back and see
Wish on me
And I will be the best that I can be
And I'll wish on you
And all the very best that you can do
And if they never come
If they never come
Wish on me
Let me look at your face
So I can remember its grace
Hold me close, hold me tight
Never forget all the love we made
And no matter how far, you're here in my heart
Wish on me
And I will be the best that I can be
And I'll wish on you
And all the very best that you can do
And if they never come
If they never come true
Never give up on the thought of me
Never let go of your hopes and dreams
I'm with you every step you take
So hold on for God's sake
Remember me when all your hope is gone
I'll give you reason to carry on
Maybe my hand won't be there to hold
But you'll never feel the cold
If you wish on me

Hold Me
If my hearts not too late for a piece of your time
Theres been so many days since your eyes looked at mine
In the dark of this room where the burnin has grown
You believe in your love when youre lost and alone
And life dont give no reasons when the love goes away
No answers for someone like you
Hold me hold me
Seems like we never get together anymore
Hold me hold me
Starry nights dont come enough
Thats what we came here for
Hold me
I will lay by your side
I can warm your cold nights
You can play in my dreams till Im out of your sight
In the morning my love couldnt change where you go
You were always my women
Its the one truth I know
So hold out when theres no chance for your love anyway
No diamond could shine close to you
Hold me hold me
Seems like we never get together anymore
Hold me hold me
Starry nights dont come enough
Thats what we came here for
Hold me

Hold On To Your Dreams
(Keith UrbanG M Holden)
Monday morning another workin' week ahead
Friday seems so far ahead
The clock keeps ringin', gotta get up out of bed
Maybe this could be the day
Motivation, well it keeps you holon' on
Every step of the way
Headin' in the right direction when you think you're turnin' wrong
Lookin' out for when you stay
So hear what I say
There's no other way, you gotta
CHORUS:
Hold onto your dreams
Cause someday baby
Your ship is gonna come in so
Hold onto your dreams
Cause everything you see
Comes true if you believe in holding
On to your dreams
Well I know sometimes it's hard to see the light
Shinin' at the tunnel's end
And thought the road just goes on and on for miles
So now and then remember
REPEAT CHORUS
Just like your eyes are the window to the soul
Dreams are the highways that lead to your goal
Hold on, hold on, You've got to hold on, hold on

Ive Got To Get A Message To You

Now for once in your life youre alone,
But you aint got a dime, theres no time for the phone.
Ive just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
I told him Im in no hurry,
But if I broke her heart, wont you tell her Im sorry.
And for once in my life Im alone,
And Ive got to let her know just in time before I go.
Ive just go to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
Well I laughed but that didnt hurt,
And its only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
Now Im crying but deep down inside,
Well I did it to him, now its my turn to die.
