Hold On To My Heart (Cover)

[Intro] (drums + tambourine + bass groove + piano stabs) [Verse 1] I been walking down this lonely street Thinking ‘bout you night and day Every step just brings me closer To the love that slipped away I can still hear you calling Like an echo in my mind If I could turn back the hands of time Boy, I’d make you mine [Pre-Chorus] (lead + background response) Lead: Every little thing I do Backing: (Do, do, do) Lead: Keeps on leading me to you Backing: (Back to you) [Chorus] (full band + harmonies) So hold on to my heart Don’t you let it break apart I’m reaching out to you tonight Trying to make it right Hold on to my heart Don’t let love just fade in the dark If you give me one more try I’ll never say goodbye [Verse 2] Every memory keeps playing on Like a record spinning round And your love’s the only melody I don’t wanna live without If I ever made you cry, boy I was wrong, I see it now I’ll spend forever proving I can turn this thing around [Pre-Chorus] (call and response builds) Lead: Every road I try to take Backing: (Leads to you) Lead: Every move I try to make Backing: (Feels so true) [Chorus] (big, punchy, horns + strings) So hold on to my heart Don’t you let it break apart I’m reaching out to you tonight Trying to make it right Hold on to my heart Don’t let love just fade in the dark If you give me one more try I’ll never say goodbye [Bridge] (drop slightly, emotional push) Oh, I can’t go on this way Without your love to guide me Every night and every day It’s you I need beside me (build with horns) [Break / Instrumental] (horn section + bass groove + tambourine drive) [Final Chorus] (full energy, stacked vocals) Hold on to my heart Don’t you let it break apart I’m reaching out to you tonight Trying to make it right [Outro] (fade with call and response) Lead: Hold on… Backing: (Hold on) Lead: To my heart… Backing: (To my heart)
