Hold On

Music and Lyrics by Sarah McLachlan

Hold on
Hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
you know that only time can tell
What is it in me that refuses me to believe
this isn't easier than the real thing
My love 
you know that you're my best friend
you know that I'll do anything for you
and my love 
let nothing come between us
my love for you is strong and true
Am I in heaven here or am I...
At the crossroads I am standing
So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and we'll see another day
and we will praise it
I love the light that brings a smile 
across your face.

Oh god if you're out there
won't you hear me.
I know we've never talked before.
Oh god the man I love is leaving.
won't you take him 
when he comes to your door.
am I in heaven here 
or am I in hell 
at the crossroads I am standing
So now you're sleeping peaceful
I like awake and pray 
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and we will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile across your face...

Hold on
hold on to yourself
for this is gonna hurt like hell
