Hold On by Adele lyrics

Intro

Hold on

You are still strong

Love will soon come

Just hold, hold on

Verse 1

 Oh, what have I done yet again?

 Have I not learned anything?

 I don’t want to live in chaos

 It’s like a ride that I want to get off

 It’s hard to hold on to who I am

 When I’m stumbling in the dark for a hand

 I am so tired of battling with myself, with no chance to win

 Chorus

 Hold on

 Let time be patient

 (You are still strong)

 Let pain be gracious

 (Love will soon come)

 Just hold, hold on

 Verse 2

 I swear to God, I am such a mess

 The harder that I try, I regress

 I’m my own worst enemy

 Right now, I truly hate being me

 Every day feels like the road I’m on

 Might just open up and swallow me whole

 How do I feel so mighty small

 When I’m struggling to feel at all?

Chorus

Just hold on (Hold on)

Let time be patient

You are still strong (You are still strong)

Let pain be gracious (Love)

Just hold on

Hold on 

 Bridge

 Sometimes loneliness is the only rest we get

 (Just hold on, just hold on)

 And the emptiness actually lets us forget

 (Just hold on, just hold on)

 Sometimes forgiveness is easiest in secret

 (Just hold on, just hold on, just hold on, just hold on)

 Chorus

 So just hold on, ooh ooh

 Let time be patient and (You are still strong)

 Let pain be gracious

 Love will soon come, baby

 If you just hold on

 Outro

 Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on 

 Just let time be patient

 ‘

Cause you’re still strong, you’re still strong (You are still strong)

 Just be gracious

 Love will soon come

 If you just hold on

 Just be patient, just be patient

 (You, just hold on, you, just just hold on)

 (You, just hold on, just hold on, just hold on)
