Take my hand and hold it tight, she spoke of a tragedy tonight
Nothing but questions fill my mind,
Will this be the end or will we survive Take my hand

I don't understand why all these tears come with laughter
And love makes you cry
When years get you down, let days pick you up
Cause life's a disaster with no one to love you

We met on a train that was New York bound,
Her voice sounded scared and her hair was down
One day she left without saying goodbye,
She left just a letter that didn't say why
It said hold on (hold on) It said hold on (hold on) Remember me

She said remember me, remember me
Hold on to memories, remember me
Hold on... to memories, to memories

I don't understand why all these tears come with laughter
And love makes you cry
When years get you down, let days pick you up
Cause life's a disaster with no one to love you
I don't understand why
Cause life's a disaster with no one to love
