Hold on Loosely - Jim Peterik

You see it all around you

Good loving gone bad

And usually it’s too late when you

Realize what you had

And my mind goes back

To a girl I left some years ago

Who told me

Just hold on loosely, but don’t let go

If you cling too tightly

You’re gonna lose control

Your baby needs someone to believe in

And a whole lot of space to breathe in

So damn easy

When your feelings are such

To overprotect her

To love her too much

And my mind goes back

To a girl I left some years ago

Who told me

Just hold on loosely, but don’t let go

If you cling too tightly

You’re gonna lose control

Your baby needs someone to believe in

And a whole lot of space to breathe in

Don’t let her slip away

Sentimental fool

Don’t let your heart get in the way

Yeah, yeah, yeah

You see it all around you

Good loving gone bad

And usually it’s too late when you

Realize what you had

So hold on loosely, but don’t let go

If you cling too tightly

You’re gonna lose control

Your baby needs someone to believe in

And a whole lot of space to breathe in

So hold on loosely, but don’t let go

If you cling too tightly

You’re gonna lose it

You’re gonna lose control

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So hold on loosely, but don’t let go

If you cling too tightly

You’re gonna lose control

Hold on loosely, but don’t let go

If you cling too tightly to her

You’re gonna lose control

Yeah, yeah, yeah
