[Verse 1]
You see it all around you
Good lovin' 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 met
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
A whole lot of space to breathe in
[Verse 2]
So damn easy
When your feelings are such
Overprotect her
To love her too much
[Pre-Chorus]
And my mind goes back to a girl I met
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
[Bridge]
Don't let her slip away
Don't let her, don't let her, don't let her slip away
Woo
[Chorus]
Just hold on loosely
Don't let it 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
Just hold on loosely
And don't let it go, don't, don't let it go now
If you cling too tightly
You're gonna lose control, you're gonna lose control
Your baby needs someone to believe in
And a whole lot of space to breathe in
[Outro]
Hold on loosely
