HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE

listen!  

This is all about being in a bad relationship, and how some people stay in very abusive relationships... there is always a reason to stay, but one should think again and hold out for true love.

che, holding out for love!

HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE

I never said that I would give up my life for you
Guess we were led
Down the alley of love by a stranger instead (so baby)

chorus		I can't wait
		This time more than my heart's at stake
		I'm HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE
		No mistake
		This time more than my heart could break
		I'm HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE

You lost the key
To a fortune I held so preciously
Why can't I cry?
Coz the answer is "no love" to the question "why?" and baby

		I can't wait
		This time more than my heart's at stake
		I'm HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE
		No mistake
		This time more than my heart could break
		I'm HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE

bridge		We'll find a reason to stay
		Slipping deeper every day
		Still I can't find the time
		To get away from you...

No more chances
So hold on to your memories coz there'll be no more, and baby,

		I can't wait
		This time more than my heart's at stake
		I'm HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE
		No mistake
		This time more than my heart could break
		I'm HOLDING OUT FOR LOVE.
