Jim Peterik - Hold On Loosely lyrics

[Verse 1] You see it all around you Good loving gone bad And usually it's too late when you Realize what you had [Pre-Chorus] And my mind goes back To a girl I left some years ago Who told me [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] It's so damn easy When your feelings are such To overprotect her To love her too much [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] Don't let her slip away Sentimental fool Don't let your heart get in the way [Verse 1] [Chorus] [Alt. Chorus 1] So hold on loosely but don't let her go If you cling too tightly You're gonna lose it You're gonna lose control Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [Alt. Chorus 2] 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 her go If you cling too tightly to her You're gonna lose control Yeah, yeah, yeah
