Ain't nothin' but heartbreak on the 6 o'clock news
Where they might as well call it the 6 o'clock blues
It sees like the whole world's going wrong
It ain't no kinda love song

We got to hold on, we got to hold on
There ain't nothin' bad a little love can't get us through
We got to hold on when it feels like hope is gone
The remedy is you and me, gotta hold on
To each other (hold on)

Now people say to let it go
And that's just the way it is, don't you know?
And I don't see how it can do any harm
To be reaching out with open arms

We got to hold on, we got to hold on
There ain't nothin' bad a little love can't get us through
We got to hold on when it feels like hope is gone
The remedy is you and me, gotta hold on
To each other (hold on), oo

Everybody understands
Everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody understands
And everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody understands
And everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody understands
And everybody needs a helping hand

We got to hold on, we got to hold on
There ain't nothin' bad a little love can't get us through
We got to hold on when it feels like hope is gone
The remedy is you and me, gotta hold on
To each other
(Everybody understands
And everybody needs a helping hand)
We got to hold on when it feels like hope is gone
The remedy is you and me, gotta hold on
