HOLD ON (S. BURKE / M. WALKER)

You stood by the alter
A ring in your hand
Watching the seconds role by
You’re thinking and dreaming
About the days of your life
Wondering how times go by

You stood by the flame tree
With a fire in your heart
Praying that good times might come
But there’s still some darkness
Left in this night
There’s still some darkness to come

Hold on
Hold on…

That fire is burning
Your life to the ground
But fuel is all you have for the flame
When it is over, only ashes remain
And you can put a price to the pain
Then you can buy back in the game

Hold on
Hold on…

This life can spin you round
It’ll chew you up
Then spit you out
And no one can understand
What you’re talking about

You stand with your family
With love in your heart
Times that you could not foresee
You’re thinking and dreaming about those times in your life
Wondering how times go by
And you know it going to be alright

Hold on
Hold on…
