The Ivy League and Tim Akkerman - Hold On

The day is calling, but you can't find a reason to get yourself out of your bed
It's like you're trying to find the surface and nobody will throw you a vest
You tried to like the people at work but for you it's just too way too hard
Nobody knows, it's hard to explain and you won't easily let down your guard
And I, I can only stand and look

When I called you, I could hear the sadness and how lonely you were in your voice
I wish that I could make you see life as I do but I know it's not just a choice
See the magic that's in the air and the beautiful things of this life
But no matter what, I want you to know that I will not just leave you behind
Cause I don't wanna throw empty words
But I can't just sit by

Hold on
When you feel like letting go, hold on again
Yes hold on
I never want to see you leave, hold on again

So what I can do is remember your hurtin' and show up tonight at your door
We'll take a drive and hope that the wind will blow away some of your sores
I wish that I could offer you more than what seem to be just empty words
But I know that, deep down, I can do little to take some of your hurt
Cause I don't wanna throw empty words
But I can't just sit by

Hold on
When you feel like letting go, hold on again
Yes hold on
I never want to see you leave, hold on again

I cannot stand it
I'd never wanna miss you
I'd try it for myself, so you can be somebody else
The only thing, I can't do
Is to share your place in the shade
But please let me try

Hold on
When you feel like letting go, hold on again
Yes hold on
I never want to see you leave, hold on again

I will stand by you
I will always answer when you call
You can lean on me
Don't ever think you have to go at it alone
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, maybe things will turn around
Turn around
