E
I can hardly stand the thought of leaving again
D
Can barely write the words I'm shakin' the pen
E
We'll be together but who knows when
C                            D
We gotta hold on hold on

E
I'm burnin' burnin' inside
D
You're outta my sight I'm outta my mind
E
We never bargained or planned on this
C                            D
We gotta hold on hold on


[Chorus]
E
I'm with you
D
Hold me in your mind
D                    A
Keep the fire strong
E
Without you
D
Not really apart
D                                   A
Our love goes on and on

                     E
When we're together we pretend
D
That we can take the time 'cuz it'll never end
E
It was so easy when love began
C                           D
We gotta hold on hold on
E
Now I'm off another city in sight
D
And I remember each and every night
E
When I could touch you it felt so right
C                                 D
That's why I hold on hold on


[Chorus]

E
I'm with you
D
Hold me in your heart
D                    A
Keep the fire strong
E
Without you
D
Not really apart
D                                   A
Our love goes on and on

E
I'm with you
D
Keep me on your mind
D                            A
Relive each memory
E
I'm waiting
D
No matter how long
D                               A         B
Until you're holding me

Until you're holding me
