Tom Paxton - Hold on to Me Babe lyrics

As my aching head is begging for a sleep that will not come, I rise and walk the morning street again. I keep wondering how you're doing and I wonder where you are And I know I'll be all right, but I don't know when. Hold onto me, babe, wherever you may be. Hold onto me, babe, I'm with you always. There was something locked inside you like a secret burning pain In a prison where you would not let me go. I was sure we'd find an answer, till I woke and found you gone. Now just what it was, I guess I'll never know. I keep hanging onto something, but I don't know what it is, But at least I know the sound of my own name, And I work as hard as ever and I see the same old friends, But there's something deep inside that ain't the same. Hold onto me, babe, wherever you may be. Hold onto me, babe, I'm with you always.
