How long, must this feeling go on How long, must I stand the pain and Waiting for the night Every time I see you and I look into your eyes There's a feeling that I get And it's way down deep inside, girl I've been trying to hold on, but you say that

Anna please turn around, we'll work it out somehow Anna don't turn me down, there's still a chance if we can hold out once more 'Cause we started out with love, that was more than enough And that's a lot to give up Even if you turn and walk away, love

I'll pick you up at 8 and we can drive around We'll park it, lay down on the hood of my car Listen to the airplanes as we count the stars, tonight I'll be your man Take you to the beach and we can head downtown, while you hold my hand So just take this

Will you let me in I know I let you down Can you believe again I come to this place To this sacred ground Just to see your face I've built a life around you Hold me in your life

I feel you in my bones, oh oh oh oh From my head down to my toes, oh oh oh oh And I know it's a long way down While we're caught in between Won't you stay in the middle with me? Hold me close And don't ever let me go In your heart I found a home

It just gets all the way to me It ain't like smoke gets in your clothes Naw, it cuts through my skin and digs in way down deep Soaks in like rain Burns like a flame Takes ahold of my soul underneath Something 'bout George Jones on the headphones Truth

Hey you're fine I wanna listen to the radio Driving down Calexico highway Hold my hand I want to share it all with Mary Results are gonna vary now And now I know the signs for sure Listen to the Beatles and the sound of laughing Ed McMahon, we got high

I'll shout it out like a bird set free I find myself in my melodies I sing for love, I sing for me You held me down We hold on so tight, we cannot deny Eats us alive, oh it eats us alive, oh Yes, there's a scream inside that we all try to hide We hold on

Have I been holding on too strong? Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? I'm not ready to go tonight Maybe I'm coming off all wrong It's only getting harder Talking to you without falling down And this house keeps getting darker We used

Standing in a hurricane Come a little gamma ray Like a refugee From the houses burning Calling your name Trying to hold Hold out for now With these ice caps Melting down
