Hold On II
I remember one Columbus Day, When I was young and learned the world was round, There didn't seem to be a lot to say, But I had trouble keepin' both feet on the ground.
But now I stick to you, I know just what to do, I hold on.
I remember looking at the sky, So thick and blue that I went tumblin' in, Out the window, knowin' I could fly, I flew as far as where the ground begins, For you I'll use the door, I don't do that anymore, I hold on.
CHORUSAll the black and blue, That I stumble through for you
Will never show.
I have a simulated grace
To help me keep my place, And never let you go.
I'll never let you go
If you could see the world the way I do, With nothing keepin' up or keepin' time, Your sense of self would tear your heart in two, While you try to tell the world you're feelin fine, Inside that's how I feel, So I reach for something real, And hold on.
CHORUSI might make these revelations
With the ghostly imitation of a smile.
It's the best that I can do, And I'll do my best for you, And hope it lasts for a while
But now I stick to you, I know just what to do, I hold on.
I remember looking at the sky, So thick and blue that I went tumblin' in, Out the window, knowin' I could fly, I flew as far as where the ground begins, For you I'll use the door, I don't do that anymore, I hold on.
CHORUSAll the black and blue, That I stumble through for you
Will never show.
I have a simulated grace
To help me keep my place, And never let you go.
I'll never let you go
If you could see the world the way I do, With nothing keepin' up or keepin' time, Your sense of self would tear your heart in two, While you try to tell the world you're feelin fine, Inside that's how I feel, So I reach for something real, And hold on.
CHORUSI might make these revelations
With the ghostly imitation of a smile.
It's the best that I can do, And I'll do my best for you, And hope it lasts for a while
