I Can't Hold Out (Eric Clapton) I just talked to my baby on the telephone, She said, "Stop what you're doing and baby come on home." I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long. I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone. You said, "Baby don't you worry, you're my heart's desire. You know that I love you, I can't stand to see you cry." I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long. I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone. She said, "Baby you can run, you can walk or fly. You know that I love you, you're my heart's desire." I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long. I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone, oh yeah. I talked to my baby, I talked to my baby. I talked to my baby, I talked to my baby. I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone.
