Rick Derringer Hold lyrics

Ocean's gonna roll without me
And river's gonna flow without me
Love's gonna spin without me
And there'll be songs to be sung long after I'm gone

I walk by the stream as the sun goes down
(Sun goes down)
Music runs through me but I can't make sounds
I try to cry out but I don't know why
My face is frozen, I can't even cry even when I try

I beg you hold
(Hold)
Hold on to me
(Hold on to me)
Hold
(Hold)
Hold on to me
(Hold on to me)

Don't let me drown
Don't let me sink
Oh, don't let me go
(Don't let me go)

I've tried everything
Lose or win
(Lose or win)
To make sense out of time
But my head just spins and spins and spins

I try to escape this whirlpool I'm in
But like a snake I shed another skin
And I plunge back in

I beg you hold
(Hold)

Hold on to me
(Hold on to me)
Hold
(Hold)
Hold on to me
(Hold on to me)

Don't let me drown
Don't let me sink
Oh, don't let me go
(Don't let me go)

This ocean's gonna roll without you
River's gonna flow without you
Love's gonna spin without you
And there'll be songs to be sung
Long after you're gone and long after I'm gone
Whoo!

I beg you hold
(Hold)
Hold on to me
(Hold on to me)
Hold
(Hold)
Hold on to me
(Hold on to me)

Don't let me drown
Don't let me sink
Oh, don't let me go
(Don't let me go)
I beg you hold
