(Words & Music by Peter Cetera)
|
Why, why, why won't you sympathize
|
And tell me where you're coming from?
|
My, my, my, don't you realize
|
We're not lovin' when there's something wrong?
|
Come here mama, let me make it right,
|
I know that we can work it out;
|
But no sense talkin' 'bout a love gone bad,
|
(Chorus:)
|
You got to hold on, hold on baby;
|
Hold on, hold on babe;
|
You got to hold on, hold on babe;
|
You got to hold on.
|
Why, why is it always something new?
|
Baby, I'm just dyin' to please.
|
Cry, cry, cry when you're singin' the blues;
|
I'm just bringin' my sympathies.
|
Hey, little mama won't you change your mind?
|
Don't go running away.
|
Please come home where you know you belong,
|
(Bridges:)
|
You know when the feeling gets you,
|
It's gonna get you;
|
And I know where it's gonna get you;
|
Right there in the back of your mind;
|
And I know when the feeling gets you,
|
I won't forget you;
|
Yes, you know that I won't forget you;
|
Got too much on my mind.
|
And I know when the feeling hits you,
|
It's gonna hit you;
|
Yes I know where it's gonna hit you;
|
Right there in the back of your mind.
|
And I Know when the feeling hits you,
|
I'll never quit you;
|
Yes, you know that I'll never quit you;
|
Got too much on the line,
|
La la la la la la la.
|
You got to hold on, hold on, baby;
|
Hold on, hold on, baby;
|
Got to hold on, hold on baby.....
