Hold Back the Tears

So sad
But there's nothing that I can do
Things are so bad
You forget every word I've spoken to you
Love is when it touches you down inside
Why are you looking for somewhere to hide?

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover
Maybe there could be someone who cares for you
You've gotta hold back the tears
You don't have to say never
Love will come to those who are prepared
To give it back

Time will never be on your side
Listen, it could be your only chance to survive
This love is waiting to call you home
Don't weep, you'll never be on your own

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover
Maybe there could be someone who cares for you
You've gotta hold back the tears
You don't have to say never
Love will come to those who are prepared
To give it back

This is all you're ever gonna be
Well, is it all worthwhile?
There's so much that I want you to see
It could be all worthwhile

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover
Maybe there could be someone who cares for you
You've gotta hold back the tears
You don't have to say never
Love will come to those who are prepared

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover
Maybe there could be someone who cares for you
You've gotta hold back the tears
