Nobody said that
|
Life is always fair
|
Sometimes it clips your wings
|
While you're in mid-air
|
But there's a thread
|
Between your life and mine
|
And when you're losin' hope
|
This rope won't unwind
|
|
[REFRAIN:]
|
Hold on tight
|
'Cause life is touch and go
|
It's sink and swim
|
But never doubt
|
If you're out on a limb
|
I'll get the call
|
To break your fall
|
I'll never leave you
|
Even when life
|
Is touch and go
|
Or hit and run
|
We'll never break
|
If we take it as one
|
I'm here to stay,
|
I pray you know
|
I'll never touch
|
I'll never touch and go
|
|
Someday you'll find
|
There's nothin' in the night
|
That wasn't there before
|
You turned out the light
|
Straight from your mind
|
The monster 'neath your bed
|
The voices in the hall
|
They're all in your head...
|
|
[REFRAIN:]
|
Hold on tight
|
'Cause life is touch and go
|
It's sink and swim
|
But never doubt
|
If you're out on a limb
|
I'll get the call
|
To break your fall
|
I'll never leave you
|
Even when life
|
Is touch and go
|
Or hit and run
|
We'll never break
|
If we take it as one
|
I'm here to stay,
|
I pray you know
|
I'll never touch
|
I'll never touch and go
|
|
When you feel lost
|
You're only spun around
|
Tumbled and tossed
|
But never run around
|
Life is a townful
|
Of strangers at best
|
I'll help you home
|
God help the rest
|
|
[REFRAIN:]
|
Hold on tight
|
'Cause life is touch and go
|
It's sink and swim
|
But never doubt
|
If you're out on a limb
|
I'll get the call
|
To break your fall
|
I'll never leave you
|
Even when life
|
Is touch and go
|
Or hit and run
|
We'll never break
|
If we take it as one
|
I'm here to stay,
|
I pray you know
|
I'll never touch
|
I'll never touch and go
|
|
Life is touch and go
|
It's sink or swim
|
But never doubt
|
If you're out on a limb
|
I'll get the call...
