All of these nights are long
I know my heart, you're strong
Got a feeling that you'll survive
These lost and these lonesome times
You can't please somebody, can't please somebody else
Until you learn to look after yourself
You can't be somebody, can't be somebody else
You've learned your lesson, put in on the shelf
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Find your stronger parts
Hold on my heart
Thinking of him each day
When he is miles away
You know it won't serve you well
It's better for time to tell
You can't please somebody, can't please somebody else
Until you learn to look after yourself
You can't be somebody, can't be somebody else
You've learned your lesson, put in on the shelf
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Find your stronger parts
Hold on my heart
Though your growing up was hard
Now you're not so easily crushed
You're still innocent and strange
All your strength still remains
You can't please somebody, can't please somebody else
Until you learn to look after yourself
You can't be somebody, can't be somebody else
You've learned your lesson, put in on the shelf
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Find your stronger parts
Hold on my heart
Hold on my heart
Be the light in the dark
Set yourself apart
And hold on my...
Hold on my heart
