When I hold you in my arms
it s a breath of fresh air
when I hold you in my arms
I forget what s out there
All those people with their faces
walkin up the street
They don t have to say a thing
just look around and you see.

New buildings going up
old buildings coming down
New signs going up
old signs coming down
You gotta hold onto something in this life.

Well the older generation
they got something to say
But they better say it fast
or get outta the way.
All those gangsters with their crimes
they make it look so good
We ve been blowing up the planet
just like the old neighbourhood.

New buildings going up
old buildings coming down
New signs going up
old signs coming down
You gotta hold onto something in this life.

If I only had a heart
it would beat all night for you
If I only had a heart
I would cry the whole day through
When I hold you in my arms
it s like a breath of fresh air
when I hold you in my arms
I forget what s out there.

Old heart s going up
old heart s coming down
My feelings going up
my feelings coming down
You gotta hold onto someone in this life.

When I hold you in my arms
it s a breath of fresh air.
When I hold you in my arms
I forget what s out there.
