Hold on to my hand

Never let go, never let go

We were just two kids acting tough

Then we grew up, me, not so much All the other guys

That you've seen

Are nothing compared to me Because my love is strong

And my heart is weak after all When we first met

We spoke so brief

When you sang a sonnet

I hummed sweet relief Do you recall that night

We took the L

Out into Bushwick?

It was colder than hell So maybe there

We should have stopped

'Cause I'm left here

Feeling like a cop Because my love is strong

And my heart is weak after all To the other side

Of the state's return

I met a young girl

Well, I couldn't manage her Because I think of you

In every girl I meet

It's no relief

That sounds to me just as sweet So maybe I'm the fool

For feeling used

By the way we kissed that night

I though you knew Because my love is strong

And my heart is weak after all
