Hold on to Innocence - Demir Demirkan

The world seems to change us

Turn us into harder people

And we are giving up or we are giving in

Time seems to keep us

Apart like perfect strangers

Stranger and stranger to ourselves

How can we tell it is real?

Yeah, we kiss, but just to kiss, without the soul

We are eye to eye, what do we see?

What do we know?

Yeah, we touch, but just to touch, without the feel

We speak of love, what do we mean?

Hold on, hold on, hold on to the innocence

Hold on, hold on tight

The dream seems to linger

Sometimes I almost taste it

It's all that's left, all that's true

I need to remember

Something more than just a memory

What I need is all of you

How can we tell it's real?

Yeah, it's real as any bullet to the brain

As real as any summer dawn

What do we know?

Life's just a breath we take and carelessly let go

We won't know it's gone until it's gone

Hold on, hold on, hold on to the innocence

Hold on, hold on tight

We were greater than ourselves

When we gave without taking

When felt without thinking

When we smiled without faking

Heart to heart and skin to skin

Hold on, hold on, hold on to the innocence

Hold on, hold on tight

Hold on, hold on, hold on to the innocence

Hold on with all your might
