Текст The Marvelettes – I’m Gonna Hold On As Long As I Can

Ooohh, time is runnin’ out
On disco ?, oh yeah
And the whole world seems stopped around
Without you by my side (yes it does)

So I’m gonna hold on as long as I can
Hold tight as I can
Hold on long as I can
Hold on tight as I can

Words don’t come easy
With these teardrops in my eyes, oh my
And I, walkin’ around in a stupor
Just like a helpless child, yes I am
Oh, I realize that things have changed
But the sweet, sweet memories still remain

I’m gonna hold on as long as I can (oh yes I am)
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Hold on long as I can (Hold on long as I can)

Yeah, every beat of my heart
Keeps tellin’ me to hold on
Mmm
Every day that we’re apart is tellin’ me to hold on
Oh ’cause ?
on it ?
break of dawn
I reach out to touch ya and I’m alone
I look in the mirror, my eyes are red
From crying all night long from the things you said
‘Cause then I’m gonna…

Hold on as long as I can, oh yes I am!
(Hold on long as I can)
I’ve got to, got to hold on as long as I can
(Hold on long as I can)
‘Cause I love ya ?
(Hold on long as I can)
I know I’ve got to hold long, long, long, long as I can
(Hold on long as I can)
Oh yes I am!
