[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones dancing when the lights go out
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
We'll be the last ones dancing in the faceless crowd
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
I will still hold you down
[Verse 1]
Don't talk, but you speak so loudly
You smile, but your eyes look cloudy
You say someone left you broken
But I'm here with the door wide open
[Pre-Chorus]
No matter what, no matter what, I'm yours
Lows and the highs, highs and the lows for sure
If you go to war, I go to war for you, for you
[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones dancing when the lights go out
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
We'll be the last ones dancing in the faceless crowd
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
I will still hold you down
[Post-Chorus]
I'll hold you down (Ooh-ooh, down, ooh-ooh)
I'll hold you down (Ooh-ooh)
I'll hold you down
[Verse 2]
Find me when the party's over
Ride home with your head on my shoulder
Last night's in the rear view mirror
Wake up and I'm still right here
[Pre-Chorus]
No matter what, no matter what, I'm yours
Lows and the highs, highs and the lows for sure
If you go to war, I go to war for you, for you
[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones dancing when the lights go out
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
We'll be the last ones dancing in the faceless crowd
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
I will still hold you down
[Post-Chorus]
I'll hold you down (Ooh-ooh, down, ooh-ooh)
I'll hold you down (Ooh-ooh, down)
I'll hold you down
[Bridge]
And I'll hold you down (Ooh-ooh)
Anytime that you will fall (Ooh-ooh)
I'll be there to pick you up (Ooh-ooh)
Yeah, I'll hold you down
[Chorus]
We'll be the last ones dancing when the lights go out
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
We'll be the last ones dancing in the faceless crowd
When there's no one to hold you, I will still hold you down
I will still hold you down
