Hold Lyrics by Rick Derringer

All American Boy

0

Ocean's gonna roll without me
And river's gonna flow without me
And love it's gonna spin without me
And there'll be songs to be sung
Long after I'm gone

I walk by the stream
As the sun goes down
(Sun goes down)
Music runs through me
But I can't make sounds
I try to cry out
But I don't know why
My face is frozen
I can't even cry
Even when I try
I beg you hold
Hold on to me
Hold
Hold on to me
Don't let me drown
Don't let me sink
Oh, don't let me go

I've tried everything
Lose or win
(Lose or win)
To make sense out of time
But my head just spins
And spins, and spins
I try to escape this whirlpool I'm in
But like a snake
I shed another skin
And I plunge back in
I beg you hold
Hold on to me
Hold
Hold on to me
Don't let me drown
Don't let me sink
Oh, don't let me go
Cuz ocean's gonna roll without you
And river's gonna flow without you
And love it's gonna spin without you
And there'll be songs to be sung
Long after you're gone
And long after I'm gone
Whooo.....
I beg you hold
Hold on to me
Hold
Hold on to me
Don't let me drown
Don't let me sink
Oh, don't let me go
I beg you hold.....
