Lyrics
One To Hold ? The Hogg Maulies
Written By: Rode Morrow
Copyright Hogg Maulies Entertainment
Verse 1
Clock strikes 2 a.m. and he?s drank all his troubles from his mind,
And once again well he just hopes he?ll make it to the morning light,
And night after night, he comes home only to be all alone,
Same old same old it just don?t even feel like home.
Chorus:
So tonight he?ll try it one more time, drink his way out of life,
Tomorrow he?ll be right on track, doin? all he can to have,
One to hold, one to love, and one who?ll love him as much.
He?ll wake to start a brand new day, in a world that?s dark and gray,
Goin? through the life he hides, if only he could find,
One to hold, one to love, and one who?ll love him as much.
Verse 2
Clock strikes 4 a.m. and thoughts just roll through his mind,
The might?ve beens, the could?ve beens, won?t ever leave him for some time,
If only the last one knew, what he was willing to do,
Well she might have stayed and she could?ve saved him many heartaches.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
If only he could make one stay,
But they always turn away?.
Repeat First Verse of Chorus
Outro:
One to hold, one to love, and one who?ll love him as much.
