Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Thinking ahead of time
Why don’t you spend the night?
I know you love me
Pick up and roll the dice
Reading between the lines
I know you love me
We can book a flight
Wake up in paradise
Sun up above us
Tell me you down to ride
And you can bet your life
No one above you
[Chorus 1]
Said hold on, can’t stop love
Said hold on, can’t stop la (can’t stop, yeah, yeah)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said hold on, can’t stop la
[Verse 2]
And as long as you’re with me
I’m definitely
Yours for the takin’
Don’t be mistakin’
And as long as you’re wit’ it
I’ll be committed to you
[Bridge 1]
(Ay, aw, yeah) I’ll show you what I know
You’ll give me what I need
Not saying I’m a pro
But you could learn from me
We go another round
Before we fall asleep
You got me on a cloud nine, baby
Feels almost like a dream
Something ‘bout your body (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus 1]
(Yeah, yeah) Said hold on, can’t stop la (yeah)
I think you better hold on, can’t stop la (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (yeah, yeah)
I think you better hold on, can’t stop la (yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Chorus 2]
I think you better hold on
I’m not ready to go
I hear you sayin’ don’t stop
I’d rather take it slow
I see you tryna hold on
But we aren't lettin’ go
You let me take control now
You’re ready to explode
(Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah)
[Chorus 1]
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
[Horn Interlude]
[Bridge 2]
(Oh, oh, yeah)
(Oh-oh-oh, yeah)
And when you’re done just say enough (enough)
When your breath just can’t keep up (keep up)
‘Cause it’s bedtime baby (yeah, yay)
[Chorus 1]
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)
Said hold on, can’t stop la (holding on, holding on)

[@jerrym1218]

Listening to this song makes me wish that there can be peace between every single one of us in the world, just put aside our differences, anger, and hate to just sit down and talk about the good things in life and why it’s all worth living for, and why it’s important to always be humble to everyone around you. We may look different to each other, but we would become surprised to know that we all have so much in common with each other than we think.

This is one of my favorite films, I didn't know it was used for this song. So moving. Black / Puerto Rican excellence. Collins was the first Black woman film director in the US, believe it or not, and this movie is everything.

[@setumox]

This is Divine! Sooopa Synergy! I felt all the frames from the visuals and every frequency in the audio, synchronize, like never before. I felt myself sinking in an ocean of emotions and realised... I'm an anchor, of some sort. Seductive and quite provocative! It asks a few, but valuable questions and leaves you intoxicated by fumes from the answers you may, or may not appreciate. It's therapeutic. Undoubtedly, one of the most spiritually elevating works of art I've had the privilege to experience. Thank you, so much! A point to the algorithm and... A million points to every single soul involved in this production!
