Please Hold On

[Verse 1: Bill Champlin] Do you love me? Do you need me? Tell me the truth tonight Do you love me? Do you need me? Can I still call you mine? I've heard the same old story So many times For every lie you've told me I'd be a rich man if I had a dime [Verse 2: Bill Champlin] Why do you take me? Why do you rake me? Over your red hot coals Why do you scold me? After you hold me Why do you turn so cold? The lady's constant cruising Explains the tears The lonely path she's choosing If I didn't love her would I still be here [Chorus: Bill Champlin with Bandmates] Please hold on, stay with me Tell me what you have in mind Please hold on, stay with me Baby, don't you leave me behind [Verse 3: Bill Champlin] Do you love me? Do you need me? Tell me the truth this time Do you love me? Do you need me? Can I still call you mine? Soft lights and quiet music Forgets your name Some people try to use it But loneliness chooses the rules to the game [Chorus: Bill Champlin with Bandmates] Please hold on, stay with me Tell me what you have in mind Please hold on, stay with me Baby, don't you leave me behind Please hold on, stay with me Tell me what you have in mind Please hold on, stay with me Baby, don't you leave me behind
