It's been a long time coming that I had to say
|
When I wake up in the morning all I do is pray
|
For some guidance and protection on the streets today
|
And an answer to the questions I ask everyday
|
|
So tell me why do the birds that used to fly here
|
Tell me why do they come to die here?
|
And all the kids that used to run here
|
Tell me why do they load their guns here?
|
|
I remember in the days when
|
We were one heart, no need to defend
|
I just wrap my arms around you
|
Don't give up, this song is for you
|
|
Hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I say hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I hold on, I'm trying to hold on
|
I hold on, hold on, hold on
|
|
From the tops of the buildings to the streets below
|
Between the Wall Street banks and the empty homes
|
Between the lines of the people standing all in a row
|
There's a crack in the gutter where a flower grows
|
|
Reminding me that everything is possible
|
Yeah, reminding me that nothing is impossible
|
You gotta live for the one that you love you know
|
You gotta love for the life that you live you know
|
|
Singing hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I'll sing hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I hold on, I'm trying to hold on
|
I hold on, I'm trying to hold on
|
|
Until the morning comes again
|
I will remain with you my friend
|
And we will ride until the sun
|
Goes to the place where it begun
|
And we will live to laugh and cry another day
|
|
Don't let nobody ever tell you that it couldn't be done
|
Don't let nobody ever tell you that we couldn't be one
|
Don't let nobody ever tell you that it shouldn't be sung
|
Don't let nobody ever tell you you're the only one
|
|
Singing hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I say hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, I hold on
|
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
|
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, I hold on
|
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
|
|
I'm just trying to hold on
|
Trying to hold on
|
Trying to hold on
|
|
I say hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I say hey, hey, hey
|
No matter how life is today
|
There's just one thing that I got to say
|
I won't let another moment slip away
|
|
I hold on, I'm trying to hold on
|
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
|
