(Coverdale/Hughes/Lord/Paice)
You're sweeter than the morning
When the sun is shining down on me
There is nothing you can say
That could make me go away you see
But you keep saying to me, baby
Hold on_I feel I'm getting ready
Hold on_I feel I'm rockin' steady
Hold on_I'm gonna make it with you woman
Hold on_You got to gimme some love, gimme some love
I held back before
But your love took me easily
You got the power
I knew was gonna creep up on me
The more I give
Your love keeps comin' on strong
Although it's mine now
I know it won't be for long
There's something in the saying
That a woman needs a little more time
I'm getting tired of waiting for you
Giving me some kind of sign
Hold on_I've got to love you when I want to
Hold on_You've got to love me when I want you to
Hold on_I ain't gonna let you leave me, baby
Hold on_No, never no more
I know the game you're playing
And I guess you think I'm easily led
You think the words you're saying
Are really going through my head
I'm gonna take you home
And give you all I can
I'll prove to you, baby
That really I'm a man
Hold on_I know I'm feeling ready
Hold on_I know I'm rockin' steady
Hold on_Guess I've made it with you woman
Hold on_I've got you giving me love
Something that you give me
Keeps me hangin' on
No use me stayin'
There's nothing to be done
I'm gonna take you home
And give you all I can
I'll prove to you, woman
That really I'm a man
Hold on_I only want to take you higher
Hold on_You are the root of my desire
Hold on_C'mon baby light my fire
Hold on......
