about

I felt I needed to have at least one song on the album where I’d
get to play a guitar solo, and this was it.

lyrics

She wanted something more, she asked if anyone could help her through?
I needed something to, someone who could help these days go
And as these hours grew long she wondered if she would ever find
The place where she would feel found, the place where somebody helps her through

When all these moments seem empty, and life is passing you by

Just try to hold on this time
Just don’t you let yourself cry
Just let your fingers feel mine
Just try to hold on this time

Just try to hold on tonight

She asked for a better life, and prayed that it could be just like theirs
And I wanted mine to be, a little more like they are in the films
And as her days all flew by, and this whole world it felt too big to her
And then she looked at herself and saw that there would be someplace else

(Chorus)

Just try to hold on tonight
