Hold On

Chris De Burgh · Far Beyond These Castle Walls [1975]

somewhere , a lonely girl lies weeping ,

a lonely man tries sleeping ,

but he's getting nowhere ...

sometime , it may be close to morning ,

she thought she heard him calling ,

but there's nobody there ...

and somehow , somehow , he knows he's got to try to

hold on , somewhere she's crying for him ,

hold on , someday her smile will call him ,

hold on , there's someone out there trying for him .

somehow , sometime , somewhere ...

somewhere , again she sleeps alone ,

he is reaching for the phone ,

but he's calling no-one ...

oh sometime , she's dreaming of her lover ,

it really can't be over ,

we've only just begun ...

and somehow , somehow , i know i've got to try to

hold on , somewhere she's crying for me ,

hold on , someday her smile will call me ,

hold on , there's someone out there trying for me .

somehow , sometime , somewhere , hold on , hold on ,

somehow , sometime , somewhere .
