Lyrics
It ain’t always what you say
It ain’t aways what you do
That keeps me holding on
That keeps me close to you
It ain’t always what you say
That makes me want to stay
It ain’t always what you bring
It ain’t always what you share
That keeps me holding on
That makes me want to care
It ain’t always what you bring
That makes me want to sing
Just hold me tight darling That’s what I need
We’ve got a real love Everyone can see
It ain’t always what you have
It ain’t always what you earn
That keeps me holding on
That makes the fires burn
It ain’t always what you have
That makes me want to earn
Just hold me tight darling That’s what I need
We’ve got a real love Everyone can see
Just hold me tight darling That’s what I need
We’ve got a real love Everyone can see
It ain’t always what we want
It ain’t always what we need
That keeps me holding on
That helps us both to see
It ain’t always what we have
Oh baby can’t you see
It ain’t always what we have
But it’s always you and me
