Story Behind the Song
If your heart gets gripped by a truth that's worth sticking with, don't give up on it to easily. Wrote this one whilst I was in college. For me, it's vocally challenging.. would love to hear it done by somebody who could REALLY sing. (Celine Dion are you there?) Hey! We can dream. Dreams are free. Hold on. Hold On.
Lyrics
Hold On (To the things that you believe in)
© Adrian J Pratt – 1983
Hold On, Hold On
Don’t let nobody steal your love away
Hold On, Hold On,
To the love you hold in your heart this day.
People will push you around
People will drag you down
Just because of the things that you believe,
People they won’t understand,
The love you hold in your hand
They’ll turn your truth into dreams.
Hold On, Hold On ,
To the things that you believe in,
Don’t let nobody steal your love away
Hold On, Hold On,
To the love you hold in your heart this day.
Let nobody shatter your dreams
People they don’t always mean
The things that they say.
Just keep your flag flying high,
The truth can never die
And love will win the day,
Hold On, Hold On ,
Just walk in the light till the darkness is gone
Hold On, Hold On ,
Just walk in the light till the darkness is gone
(Repeat Chorus)
Don t be afarid to stand out of the crowd
And don t let doubt pull you down
(Repeat Chorus twice)
