Lyrics
He was only fifteen when he met her.
She was just like the dream...in his mind.
Holding hands on the dock...
couldn't get much better.
And we keep on holdin' on.
And we keep on holdin' strong.
And the feeling we felt when love was young,
can we find it once again?
Hold on to the memories-
When they start to fade away.
Hold on to the melody of love.
Now she sits in her room...all alone.
Broken heart...all alone...she cries.
But she keeps on holding on.
And she keeps on holding strong.
And that feeling she felt when love was new...
can she find it once again?
Hold on to the memories,
when they start to fade away.
Hold on to the melody of love.
Hold on to the memories,
when they start to fade away.
Hold on to the melody of love.
Of love....she was in love....in love.
Now she sits in her easy chair...........she smiles.
