Holding On

I'm holding on tight
not ever letting go
I'm so afraid to fall
but I care about you so

You've changed how I think
the way I view men
I'm tightening my grip
my past cannot win

Hoping and praying
Holding so tight
Unclenching my soul
won't happen, tonight.

I'm forgetting my past
with all thanks to you
My heart says hold on
For my mind says so, too

I want you to feel
that I care about you so
I'm not yet in love
But I'm not letting go

I've been hurt by many
and my heart has been broken
But I'm trusting you truly
my heart has now spoken

Worried for loss
or another shattered heart
But holding on tight
looking towards no part

Although I'm not in love
I love you so much
I hope you see the difference
for I care a whole bunch

I hope you truly are
whom you show to be
Baby, don't let go
just hold on to me
