It was meant to be simple The way that we love each other It was mean to be simple Just one golden rule If I'm caught in the river Tell me what would you do? If you can see that I'm drowning And reaching out for you HOLD ON HOLD ON TO ME You ever thought of the language The one that we all speak? The golden weight letters I hear your fear and your anger But can you hear my heart break? It could be simple If you would just listen when I say HOLD ON HOLD ON TO ME You ever think of my fingers When you join your hands to pray Cause I'm singing your hymns When I'm crying HOLD ON HOLD ON TO ME
