[Intro/Chorus]
Just hold on a little longer
Even when we're hurting, I still want you
And if you walk out that door, you know it’s over
Can't we just hold on a little longer?
A little longer
(Just a little)
[Verse 1]
Here we are in the spot
In same place where I stole your cigarette
Back when we first met
(Just a little)
100 highs, 100 nights
A couple break ups and fights, but
This time feels different, yeah
(Just a little)
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it's all of the memories coming back to me
Maybe it’s this drink, I'm starting to think
I'm gonna miss you when you go (Mmm)
'Cause your eyes change color when you're sad
Go from blue to grey, I wish they wouldn't say
That we have to call this off
[Chorus]
Just hold on a little longer
Even when we're hurting, I still want you
And if you walk out that door, you know it's over
Can’t we just hold on a little longer?
A little longer
Just a little
[Verse 2]
Of your time
’Cause my head, won't stop playing
Conversations we’ll never have
All the moments I can't forget
(Just a little)
And there's still a little
In your glass, you're not finished
Like you don’t wanna end it just yet
Like you still got some feelings left (Mmm)
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it's all of the memories coming back to me
Maybe it's this drink, I'm starting to think
I'm gonna miss you when you go (Mmm)
'Cause your eyes change color when you're sad
Go from blue to grey, I wish they wouldn't say
That we have to call this off
[Chorus]
Just hold on a little longer
Even when we're hurting, I still want you
And if you walk out that door, you know it's over
Can't we just hold on a little longer?
A little longer
Just a little longer
[Bridge]
I will miss the dancing in the dark
I will miss the "God, I miss you" calls
I'd miss walking drunk under your arm if you left
So stay here
[Chorus]
Just a little longer
Even when we're hurting, I still want you
And if you walk out that door, you know it's over
Can't we just hold on a little longer?
A little longer
[Chorus]
Just a little longer
Even when we're hurting, I still want you
And if you walk out that door, you know it's over
Can't we just hold on a little longer?
A little longer
Just a little longer
[Outro]
'Cause I will miss the dancing in the dark
Yeah, I will miss the "God, I miss you" calls
I'd miss walking drunk under your arm if you left
So stay here
Just a little longer

I wrote this song at a songwriting camp I went to during the fall of 2018 in Denmark. I wrote it together with Max Wolfgang and Dehiro, and then it was later produced further by Freddy Alexander who’s produced a lot of my songs so far.
This song is about knowing your relationship is at an end but wanting to hold on to it a little bit more. I’ve tended to stay in relationships way longer than I should have. I guess I’ve always hated letting go of both the good and the bad parts. I’ve also had a hard time accepting that sometimes lo...
As this song was written at a camp, it was actually meant to be pitched to other artists, but after coming back from the camp I just couldn’t stop listening to it over and over again. I related to the lyrics too much to let it go to another artist.
