Looks good! what’s the difference this time
Oh, the package was so inviting, tall and fine
Unwrap the prize, look inside
I know, girl — it could be worse
Next one in line, don’t you be taking
All that glitters isn’t always gold
You’ve been right here before

Someone out there is calling your name
Follow the voice, then look at the heart
Hold out, hold out for love
Will you settle for less another time
Just before your heart breaks, listen to the cry
Hold out for love one more time
Hold out for love

Again? Not again; was it stress
Thought it was real, a love you never knew
Emotions, feelings clouding your view
So determined, all about you
To get the best, you fell for less
You won’t let it happen again, will you
All this discomfort and the utmost duress

Someone out there is calling your name
Yes, that heartbeat is where you start
Hold out, hold out for peace
Will you still fall for the line
HOLD OUT — you know the lies
You can get the best this time
Hold out for love

Yet again — this time it’s real, this time it will last
Who said you were hooked on a feeling
Wait! You hear the truth calling
Yes, It’s calling; it’s calling
Listen, please listen before it fades
Oh no, not again, now you’re falling
You’re falling

Years too old for infatuation
When will you be grown — SCREAM!
Descend Power of Love on me
Strength to heal brings true elation
No counterfeit over here; remove all deception
Here is God’s love; it was at your inception

Take it! Take it!

Someone out there is looking for you
Follow loves’ voice; I pray that you do
Hold out, hold out for love
You can find more than you seek this time
No more heartbreak; just listen to the cry
Hold out for love one more time
Hold out for love
