1993 single from Slade II [Intro] Ooh-ooh yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah [Verse 1] That special night the star shines bright Upon the season of good cheer I pour a drink put out the lights It’s not the same cause your not here [Pre-chorus] Still hang a stocking on the wall Just for the kids not you no [Chorus] These days you’ve got to hold on to love Show me how to hold on to love [Verse 2] That special night a star shines bright Upon the season of good cheer I raise my glass and toast the past To absent friends wish you were here [Pre-chorus] Did your mama tell ya bout the old songs? Recall the times when we were so young [Chorus] These days you’ve got to hold on to love Show me how to hold on to love [Solo] x2 [Chorus] These days you’ve got to hold on to love These days you’ve got to hold on to love [Outro to fade] Hold on hold on Even when all your hope is gone You’ve got to hold on to love Hold on hold on Have to find the strength to carry on You’ve got to hold on to love
