There's always trouble from what I hear
Everyone we know is breaking up this year
Yeah, trouble, nothing new
But I never thought I'd have this trouble with you
I lost my one way ticket home
I'm at a busted telephone
And I got no way to show you you're not alone
Oh mercy, mercy me
Maybe for a minute I wanted to be free
But then I saw what I had to lose
They say the narrow path is the hardest to choose
I got a one way radio
Communication's slow
And I got no way to show you you're not alone
[Chorus]
Hold on, on baby, hold on
I'm sorry I did you wrong
Hold on, on baby, hold on
Please don't you say so long
When we look up from this mess
We'll see our stars were only taking a rest
And now they're lining up east to west
So hold on
There's always trouble, look around and see
But I'm not in the kind I thought I'd be
Isn't it always true?
The thing you had to learn was the thing you thought you knew
I got a new humility, I think you'd like to see
[Chorus]
Hold on, on baby, hold on
I'm sorry I did you wrong
Hold on, on baby, hold on
Please don't you say so long
When we look up from this test
We'll see our stars were only taking a rest
And now they're lining up east to west,
So hold on, hold on, hold on
