Verse 1:
I got your letter and the
poetry you sent me
Postmarked in
december of last year
I really hope you're
doing better
All of your friends
close by your side
One step closer to recovery
Refrain:
I wish there was
something i could say
To erase each and every
page that you've been through
Even though its not
my place to save you
I appreciate but can't
accept this thank-you note
Thats sealed with
your last breath
I won't stand aside and
listen to you give up
Chorus 1:
If you'll just hold on
for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold
on just hold on
If you'll just hold on
for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold
on just hold on
Verse 2:
These arms remain
stretched out to you
Maybe someday
you'll accept them
Or maybe its too late
to save a young
girls heart that's
long stopped beating
Wake up wake up you've gotta believe
Wake up wake up you cant give up
Time keeps going on without us
Long after we're dead and gone
(Repeat Refrain)
Chorus 2:
If you'll just hold on
for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold
on just hold on
If you'll just hold on
for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold
on just hold on
You will wake up tommorrow
Outro:
Just hold on to what you have
Just hold on to what you have

C G A D-- x4, D(hold)
Just hold on to what you have
