lyrics

LYRICS:

When the earth quakes
And ashes start to fall
And the tidal wave
Engulfs the ocean shore
Heading down this road
But I can’t see the light
Promise that you’ll keep me safe tonight

Scared of diving into fantasies unknown
Fear of drowning in this world I call my home
Hanging on the edge
But holding on for life
Promise that you’ll keep me safe tonight

But we’re two worlds apart
Alone in the dark
Still holding onto love it’s all we know
I’m holding onto all the memories we sowed
Many moons ago

Hold onto me
Don’t let me fall
And I’ll surrender
My heart to you

But we’re two worlds apart
Alone in the dark
Still holding onto love it’s all we know
I’m holding onto all the memories we sowed
Many moons ago

Hold onto love
Cause it’s all that we know
Many years have passed
But it still feels brand new
And I’ll hold your hand
When it all comes crashing down

Worlds apart
We never know where we could be
Perfect darkness
In another galaxy
Holding onto love and all our memories
I’m holding onto all the memories we sowed
Many moons ago

I'm holding, I'm holding on, Still holding on
You're holding on, You're holding on, Still holding on
We're holding on, We're holding on, Still holding on
We're holding onto all the memories we sowed
Many moons ago
