[Verse]
Em
Do you still wake up at 2 am talking in your sleep
D
Does your right hand rest beside you does it still reach out to me
Em
Feels like it’s been forever since I last saw your face
D
Felt that sweet redemption in the way you say my name
Em
I lost count of all the miles between your heart and mine
D
But your memory fills my lungs with air and keeps my love alive
Em
Though words will lose their meaning until they’re proven true
D
No walls no floods no act ‘a god will keep me from you
[Chorus]
Em
So hold on

[Verse]
Em
I did not believe in heaven I did not believe in fate

In providence and piety I’d given up my faith
Em
Till the day that I first met you I found my faith again
D
I swear to the lord above you are heaven sent
[Chorus]
Em
So hold on

[Verse]
Em
There’s surrender in the silence that occupies my mind
D
Clouded visions of the shadows of righteousness and pride
Em
If our love be my downfall I will take my fall from grace
D
And where it like a thorny crown as I sing out your name
Em
And as I lay here in the darkness finding everything but sleep
D
I pray God leads you to my thoughts and you my soul to keep
Em
Forever is a promise and as long as I’m alive
D
I promise babe I’m coming home please say that you’ll be mine
[Chorus]
Em
So hold on
