Hold Out

Cab lines fill up with hotheaded hard boys
Capering from the start
Shivering lovers sharing coats and one-liners
Awaiting the late night dance

Rowdy hyenas laughing and wheezing
Smoking the cheapest brand
Still off my feet, I’ll be numbing the feeling
Till I know how to safely land

The night is so long
I know that you hear me
Honey, I can’t hold out
The night is so long
I know that you hear me
Honey, I can’t hold out

Usual suspects caught in dirt for their trouble
See them painting the old town red
This disadvantage temporarily helps
Till I’m lying awake in bed

The night is so long
I know that you hear me
Honey, I can’t hold out
The night is so long
I know that you hear me
Honey, I can’t, can’t, can’t hold out

The night

The night is so long
I know that you hear me
Honey, I can’t hold out
The night is so long
I know that you hear me
Honey, I can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t hold out
