Holding on to the melody lyrics
Intro
Hold... the note
Verse 1
Bare feet on the wooden floor
Sundown through the window glass
You were sitting on my lap now
And I never wanted it to pass
Pre-Chorus
Do you feel it in your chest?
This is where we're meant to be
Chorus
Hold on to this one sweet place
Where our hands are still entwined like a rope
Don't let go of the melody
Even when the music starts to slope
Verse 2
Your fingers tracing patterns on my skin
The same old tune we've danced before
But tonight it feels brand new again
Like nothing's ever been this open door
Pre-Chorus
Do you feel it in your chest?
This is where we're meant to be
Chorus
Hold on to this one sweet place
Where our hands are still entwined like a rope
Don't let go of the melody
Even when the music starts to slope
Bridge
Maybe it's just this one small room
Or maybe it's where we always should have been
Either way, I want to stay here with you
Right now, right here, forever true
Chorus
Hold on to this one sweet place
Where our hands are still entwined like a rope
Don't let go of the melody
Even when the music starts to slope
