Hold on

from The Legacy by Danny Hooper

about

My wife has threatened to leave me several times during our marriage. At the time of writing Hold on, however, we were going great. We were on the last stretch of our trip around Australia and we were camping in a little camp area called Quagi Beach in Western Australia, just west of Esperance.
I was out jogging along the beautiful coastline when the idea hit. As usual, the chorus hook-line was the first to arrive and the song was built around that.
I did struggle with one verse however so I took it over to a neighbouring camper. Her name was Ida and she actually gave me a couple of lines to finish it off. I have given Ida a thank you in the credits.

lyrics

It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sun
There’s darkness all around this place
I’ve watched the light in your eyes grow dim
And the cold creep across your face
I know you think it’s over
And you’re saying maybe we should end

Hold on, me and you
Just because we’re fighting doesn’t mean we’re through
Hold on ‘til the end
Let’s get back the love we once had
Take a good long look around
Two hearts at the lost and found

Can you remember the times we had
When we found love at the start
We’d walk together along the beach
And hold hands in the park
I wanna see that look again
The fire in your eyes

Hold on, me and you
Just because we’re fighting doesn’t mean we’re through
Hold on ‘til the end
Let’s get back the love we once had
Take a good long look around
Two hearts at the lost and found, Hold on

It’s a two part harmony
It’s not about you and it’s not about me

Hold on, me and you
Just because we’re fighting doesn’t mean we’re through
Hold on ‘til the end
Let’s get back the love we once had
Take a good long look around
Two hearts at the lost and found, Hold on
