Hold On Tight - Solomon Burke

So wicked In the way he moves Don't miss it Do not be a fool It's a long way It's a long way home Light inside of me It ignites my bones He comes to me in my dreams And tells me what I need to know He makes me feel so at ease And guides me to the lights above I just wanna fall into his arms tonight Someone tell me I, I will be alright Hold on tight Remembering, I forever will Surrendering, just to how we felt It's a long way It's a long way home Light inside of me It ignites my bones He comes to me in my dreams And tells me what I need to know He makes me feel so at ease And guides me to the lights above I just wanna fall into his arms tonight Someone tell me I, I will be alright Hold on tight And when it's all the thunder and rain The cinema is fading away I gotta make my way through the night Holding on with all of my might And when I'm lost, and I can't find the way I feel the pieces breaking away Hold myself with all of my might Don't let go Just hold on tight He comes to me in my dreams And tells me what I need to know He makes me feel so at ease And guides me to the lights above I just wanna fall into his arms tonight Someone tell me I, I will be alright Hold on tight

Where's your smile gone 'cause It don't shine no more There's a light on but You don't open your door When you're ready You can tell me what's wrong I had trouble and There's no hiding that If you're struggling Let me know where you're at Life gets heavy And that road can be long When the rain comes And the sky is falling down In your darkest hour When there's no one around It won't be long Keep your head strong Hold on tight to me Hold on tight, hold on When you feel like crying Go on let it out Just remember The sun is shining behind the clouds It won't be long 'Til your pain's gone Just hold on tight to me Hold on tight, hold on Sometimes a worry can Get the best of us And I understand How you could lose your trust Let me show you that Here is where you belong I can be your shoulder to cry on You will find comfort in my arms I can be your shelter on solid ground When the rain comes And the sky is falling down In your darkest hour When there's no one around It won't be long Keep your head strong Hold on tight to me Hold on tight, hold on When you feel like crying Go on let it out Just remember The sun is shining behind the clouds It won't be long 'Til your pain's gone Just hold on tight to me Hold on tight, hold on Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight Hold on tight, hold on When the rain comes And the sky is falling down In your darkest hour When there's no one around It won't be long Keep your head strong Hold on tight to me Hold on tight, hold on When you feel like crying Go on let it out Just remember The sun is shining behind the clouds It won't be long 'Til your pain's gone Just hold on tight to me Hold on tight, hold on Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight to me Hold on tight Hold on tight, hold on

When the night come, the night come I'll keep you safe, keep you sound Hold on tight Hold on tight Hold on tight We are strong, we are steady We won't fall in the rain I hold your hand when you're hurting (ah-ah) We all want love, but we're scared of pain Hold on tight in the waves with me now When the lights go, the lights go down You'll be safe, you'll be sound Hold on tight, would you wait with me now?

Hey! (Hey!) Everybody! (Everybody!) All around the world Every boy and girl Taking lessons from me Do The Stupidity My Momma she says it's silly My Poppa says, "you look like a fool" But, baby, I don't mind the criticism Because were doing it every day in school Come along with me See how much fun it can be While watching me, baby Do The Stupidity Oh my Momma she says it's silly My Poppa says I look like a fool But, I don't mind the criticism Because were doing it every day in school Come along with me See how much fun it can be Watch it on TV Oh, baby, thats The Stupidity

The accused will rise To be torn in two Guilty of nothin' but loving you This is the judgement And I'm willin' to plead How you don't want me Hopin' this torment will cease Will I be released? There'll be lies, there'll be tears A jury of your peers With a pitiful look of experience Hand down the judgement And if I done wrong And loved you too long Stand up and just testify How can you deny? Objection overruled I wait for my reprieve With the trust of the deceived The wisdom of the fool It's his sorrowful face Too heavy for his head 'Cos he bowed it as something come over him It was the judgement And he falls to his knees Have mercy on me He clings to the hem of her gown She says: "Just take him down" Just take him down Just take him down
