Harry Belafonte - Hold On To Me Babe

As my aching head is begging
For a sleep that will not come
I'll rise
And walk the morning streets again

I keep-a wondering how you're doing
And I wonder where you are
And I know I'll be alright
But I don't know when

Hold on to me, babe
Wherever you may be
Hold on to me, babe
I'm with you always

There was something locked inside you
Like a secret burning pain
In a prison where
You would not let me go

I was sure we'd find an answer
'Til I woke and found you gone
Now just what it was
I guess I'll never know

Hold on to me, babe
Wherever you may be
Hold on to me, babe
I'm with you always

I keep hanging on to something
Though I don't know what it is
But at least
I know the sound of my own name

And I work as hard as ever
And I see the same old friends
But there's something deep inside
And it ain't the same

Hold on to me, babe
Wherever you may be
Hold on to me, babe
I'm with you always

Hold on to me, babe
Wherever you may be
Hold on to me, babe
I'm with you al, al-al-al-al-always.
