Andrew Osenga - Hold On, Boy Lyrics
I walked to school every day with a boy up the streetOur mothers declared we were friends, so it was to beHe listed by number the girls he had kissedAnd how sweet they tasted and haw soft their lipsWhen we got to school I hid out by the playground to readO boy, just hold on, boyO, remember this dayIf ever you find it, boy, never let love get awayThe first time she noticed me my lace was crimson with shameMy quest for attention had led to them laughing againA couple years later she leaned in to whisperCompassion and kindness, as I went to kiss herShe suddenly vanished...Oh, the ache...O boy, just hold on, boyO, remember this dayIf ever you find it, boy, never let love get awayI waited so longWhen I finally found youI was a madman, drunk with desireYou were a lifeboat, I was on fireNow that it's overThe damage is seenAll I can say isCould you forgive me?Boy, just hold on, boyRemember this painIf ever you find it again, boyGive her room to learn to love you and maybe she'll stay...
