To have and to hold
But we don't hold each other that way now
Or better or worse but what could be worse tham bein' alone
Still death to be part and our love dies a little each day now
To have and to hold
And we don't even try to keep a holdin' on

I guess the vow is just a promise may betray
Or is it just because we made a big mistake
We vowed to one each other until the end of time
And now it seems that promises are just forgotten line

To have and to hold
But we don't hold each other that way now
Or better or worse but what could be worse tham bein' alone
Still death to be part and our love dies a little each day now
To have and to hold
And we don't even try to keep a holdin' on
To have and to hold
And we don't even try to keep a holdin' on
