Carrie Newcomer - Hold On lyrics

rate me

I've been drivin' down this road

Five times this week

It's almost as if these farm fields

Could speak to me

A hungry lion's been prowlin'

Outside my door these days

And though I shake my fist at it

It doesn't go away

But hold on

There's a place beside your heart

Right below your collar bone

Where I have laid down my head

And rested like I've never known

I stayed there for a while or so

It broke my heart to see you go

Hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold, hold on

Life is short, my dreams are made

And the bargain's struck and the price is paid

I have walked a fragile line

And I have heard an inner voice call

I called you up, I woke you up

I ask you could I try anymore

So hold on, hold on

Well, there are those who would put you down

Smilin' bastards who would keep you down

But this gentle source who will lift you up

And I have heard the voice of God sayin'

Hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on
