Lyrics

Hang on to Your Love (Long Version)

[Chorus] In heaven's name, why are you walking away? Hang on to your love In heaven's name, why do you play these games? Hang on to your love [Verse 1] Take time if you're down on luck It's so easy to walk out on love Take your time if the going gets tough It's so precious [Pre-Chorus] So if you want it to get stronger You'd better not let go You gotta hold on longer If you want your love to grow Gotta stick together Hand in glove Hold tight, don't fight Hang on to your love [Chorus] In heaven's name, why are you walking away? Hang on to your love In heaven's name, why do you play these games? Hang on to your love [Verse 2] Be brave when the journey is rough It's not easy when you're in love Don't be ashamed when the going gets tough It's not easy, don't give up [Pre-Chorus] If you want it to get stronger You'd better not let go You gotta hold on longer If you want your love to grow Gotta stick together Hand in glove Hold tight, don't fight Hang on to your love [Chorus] In heaven's name, why are you walking away? Hang on to your love In heaven's name, why do you play these games? Hang on to your love [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] So if you want it to get stronger You'd better not let go You gotta hold on longer If you want your love to grow Gotta stick together Hand in glove Hold tight, don't fight Hang on to your love [Chorus] In heaven's name, why are you walking away? Hang on to your love In heaven's name, why do you play these games? Hang on to your love [Outro] When you find a love (To your love) Don't let it walk away When you find your love (To your love) You've got to make it stay (Hang on) (Hang on to your love) Don't let it walk away When you find your love (To your love) You've got to make him stay You've got to hang on to your love (To your love) You've got to hang on to your love (To your love) (Hang on) Why are you walking away? (Why are you walking away?) (Hang on) Why do you play these games? (Play these games) Hang on to your love Hang on to your love Hang on to your love
