[Verse 1] Dear, hold onto my heart Don't let it drift away I keep it wrapped in your name Like a note I can't throw away You know my hands get cold When the room goes still But your touch brings me home Like rain on a windowsill [Pre-Chorus] So take it slow Don't look back If I fall, you catch me Right on track [Chorus] Dear, hold onto my heart Don't you ever let it go Dear, hold onto my heart You're the only place I know (hold onto my heart) (don't let it go) [Verse 2] You left your sweater on my chair Still smells like your skin I smile when I pass that door 'Cause I know you'll come in I used to guard my chest Like a locked-up room Now I leave the key with you And I bloom for you [Pre-Chorus] So take it slow Don't look back If I fall, you catch me Right on track [Chorus] Dear, hold onto my heart Don't you ever let it go Dear, hold onto my heart You're the only place I know (hold onto my heart) (don't let it go) [Bridge] If the world pulls hard And the nights get long Say my name once And I'll hold on strong No broken vow No empty try Just your steady hands And my open sky [Final Chorus] Dear, hold onto my heart Don't you ever let it go Dear, hold onto my heart You're the only place I know Dear, hold onto my heart I was made to stay so close (hold onto my heart) (don't let it go)
