Lyrics

Little girl returned from the world out there
Full of hope at every turn with the sun in her hair
The places she's been and the things see's seen,
The people she's known, how her heart has grown
Every love affair seemed to end in despair
But she made it through, to her heart she stayed true
It's hard out there to be the one who cares
But all she's known is to be alone

Hold on for love, yeah
Hold on for sure
Hold on for a little longer
It could be a little while
It could be a little while
It could be a little while

She puts her faith in her words today
The solitary solace of a writer's way
Pen in hand it's a dreamer's dreamland
She write's of home and places she's never known
A dream in mind she says is worth her time
She takes us there, her words take care
Love is on her mind, she thinks that now's her time
She found a place where love knows her face

Hold on for love, yeah
Hold on for sure
Hold on for a little longer
It could be a little while
It could be a little while
It could be a little while

Leaves fly by her window at night
She says goodbye to each one as she writes
Every barren branch is another paragraph
Each word curls the woman to the girl
Now she's returned from the world at large
Big Cities in her eyes, ready to take charge
Her words found love in a song
She feels her time now it won't be long

Hold on for love, yeah
Hold on for sure
Hold on for a little longer
It could be a little while
It could be a little while
It could be a little while
