Hold On (never Give Up Never Give In) Lyrics

Words and music by John Kay, Michael Wilk and Rockett Ritchotte







If the heart is a lonely hunter



Then the mind is a loaded gun



Sometimes it begins to wonder



If the love you seek is on the run



All day you've been thinkin' 'bout the coming night



It's the only time you really fear



It holds no tenderness



For you're alone in this wilderness







Hold on, never give up, never give in



Stay young and believe in your chance to win



Hold on, never give up, never give in



Stay young and don't ever betray your dreams







A rough night in the daily jungle



And it's tough times on the nightly news



Somehow you ignore the rumble



Of the heart that's shakin' in your shoes



"Someday", you just keep on sayin'



"Someday, I will find a way to live my dream"



But there's no guarantee



Still, you got hope and your fantasy







Hold on, never give up, never give in



Stay young and believe in your chance to win



Hold on, never give up, never give in



Stay young and don't ever betray your dreams







Keep on dreaming, keep on scheming



Stay fast and young, your time will come



Keep on hoping, keep on coping



Stay fast and young, your time will come



Keep on believing, keep on achieving



Stay fast and young, your time will come
