Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith and let your love be stronger
Hold on, like you promised to
'Cause I'll be coming back to you

I heard just the other day
That since we've, since we've been apart
Someone is making a play
Darling, to steal your heart but I say

Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith and let your love be stronger
Hold on, like you promised to
'Cause I'll be coming back to you

His arms, oh his arms may be so tempting
And his smile, his smile may be so divine
And somehow honey he may remind you of me
But don't let his charm change your mind
All I want you to do is

Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith now and let your love be stronger
Hold on, like you promised to
'Cause I'll be coming back to you

And I know you are so lonely
But darling, remember, remember so am I
So be strong, just be strong and think of me only, yea
And forget about that other guy
All I want you to do for me is

Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith now and let your love be stronger
Hold on, like you promised to
'Cause I'll be coming back to you

Oh, hold on pretty baby
Hold on just a little longer
Hold on baby, hold on
