Hold On to the Night

A huge ballad for the things that refuse to disappear when the lights go out.

Physical release

Lyrics

Verse 1

I've walked forever through this nightmare alone
The endless years that I've endured on my own
I turned my back on all I thought that I knew
And travelled oceans of time just for you

Chorus

Hold on to the night, now baby
Hold on, and I will make it alright
Hold on to the night
For at dawn's first light
We disappear

Verse 2

Eternal passion from our hearts still and cold
Undying embers of the love I still hold
I hear the echoes of my past start to call
We'll wait together for the darkness to fall

Chorus

Hold on to the night, now baby
Hold on, and I will make it alright
Hold on to the night
For at dawn's first light
We disappear

Bridge

The shadows are our sanctuary
Shrouded in mystery throughout eternity
The children of the night, such music they make
So sad your heart will surely break

Guitar Solo

Final Chorus | Fade Out

Hold on to the night, now baby
Hold on, and I will make it alright
Hold on to the night
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
