[Verse 1]
You know I never meant to be a burden to you
I never want to cause you harm
I know what heavy conversation does to you
I wish I never brought it up at all
But some days, I need a rescue
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey you, if you hear me calling
Hey you, if you see me falling
[Chorus]
Will you catch me?
Will you hold out your arms and catch me?
Will you catch me?
Do you think that you're strong enough?
[Verse 2]
You always told me that these days would get better
But I'm afraid that you were wrong
'Cause time never stops when you're hurting
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey you, if you hear mе calling (Hey you, calling)
Hey you, if you see me falling (Hеy you, falling)
[Chorus]
Will you catch me?
Will you hold out your arms and catch me? (Will you catch me?)
Will you catch me?
Will you hold out your arms and catch me? (Will you catch me?)
Do you think that you're strong enough? (Will you hold out your arms and catch me?)
Do you think that you're strong enough? (Will you hold out your arms and catch me?)
[Post-Chorus]
Will you hold out? Will you hold out?
[Bridge]
When the waves come crashing down
We can be the ones to pull each other out
When the waves come crashing down
We can be the ones to pull each other out
(Catch me)
[Chorus]
Will you catch me?
Will you hold out your arms and catch me? (Will you catch me?)
Will you catch me?
Will you hold out your arms and catch me? (Will you catch me?)
Do you think that you're strong enough? (Will you hold out your arms and catch me?)
[Post-Chorus]
Will you hold out? Will you hold out?
Will you hold out? Will you hold out?
Will you hold out? Will you hold out?
Hold Out was written by AJ Michalka & Aly Michalka & Yves Rothman & Johnnie Newman.
Hold Out was produced by Yves Rothman.
