Lyric Next To Love

(Lari White/Chuck Cannon)

There s a chill hanging in the air
We ve been silent all night long
I m lying here, you re way over there
Pretending there ain t nothing wrong
Ain t there something I can say, something you can do
Something s getting in the way, baby
We can t let it tear us in two

You ve got to hold on to me and I ll hold on to you
We ve got to hold on to each other
You know, next to love there ain t nothing worth holding onto

So, baby, hold on to me and I ll hold on to you
We might have to stay up all night
We may have to stay home all day
We ve gotta find a way to make it right
Or good love is gonna slip away
And, I d get right down on my knees
To keep from losing you
When it comes to times like these
Holding on is all we can do
