Hold My Girl
Embracing Love's Redemption: Corey Gray's 'Hold My Girl' Meaning
Lyrics
I've been waiting for you
I have been patiently anticipating your presence
To come around and tell me the truth
To open up and share the truth with me
'Bout everything that you're going through
About everything you're going through
My girl you've got nothing to lose
My girl, you have nothing to lose
Cold nights and the Sunday mornings
Referencing difficult and lonely nights as well as Sunday mornings
On your way and out of the grey
Heading away from a dull and mundane situation
I've got time, I've got love
I have time, love, and confidence that you will overcome
Got confidence you'll rise above
Confident that the person will rise above challenges
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting a moment to embrace and comfort his girl
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
Crowded town or silent bed
Contrasting a busy town with a quiet bed
Pick a place to rest your head
Choosing a place to find peace and rest
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting time to hold his girl again
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
I've been dreaming 'bout us
Reflecting on dreams about their future together
Working hard and saving it up
Working hard and saving for a shared future
We'll go and see the man on the moon
Planning to achieve extraordinary things together
My girl we've got nothing to lose
Emphasizing that they have nothing to lose
Cold nights and the Sunday mornings
Recalling cold nights and Sunday mornings
On your way and out of the grey
Moving away from a dull and ordinary situation
I've got time, I've got love
Expressing availability of time, love, and confidence
Got confidence you'll rise above
Confident that the person will rise above challenges
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting a moment to hold his girl
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
Crowded town or silent bed
Contrasting a busy town with a silent bed
Pick a place to rest your head and
Choosing a place to find peace and rest
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting time to hold his girl again
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
My girl, my girl
Addressing his girl with affection
It takes one hot second to turn it around
Highlighting the quickness with which situations can change
It takes one hot second to turn it around
Emphasizing the potential for positive change
I've got time, I've got love
Expressing availability of time, love, and confidence
Got confidence you'll rise above
Confident that the person will rise above challenges
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting a moment to embrace and comfort his girl
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
Crowded town or silent bed
Contrasting a busy town with a silent bed
Pick a place to rest your head and
Choosing a place to find peace and rest
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting time to hold his girl again
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
I've got time, I've got love
Expressing availability of time, love, and confidence
Got confidence you'll rise above
Confident that the person will rise above challenges
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting a moment to hold his girl
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
Crowded town or silent bed
Contrasting a busy town with a silent bed
Pick a place to rest your head and
Choosing a place to find peace and rest
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Requesting time to hold his girl again
Give me a minute to hold my girl
Reiteration of the desire for a moment to hold his girl
