| What a novel way to be forgotten
|
| Who could know that limbo felt like this?
|
| With six kids and so many years behind us
|
| Now to find you’re too busy for a kiss
|
| But I can hold on, hold on to our life
|
| Oh, the home it bores me, I cannot lie
|
| With nobody here it’s just a cave
|
| The drinks may numb, the pills sedate me
|
| Some days just getting up is being brave
|
| And even when you’re near me you never hear me
|
| But I can hold on, hold on to our life
|
| Show me love, don’t stand me up, show me something
|
| Give me your heart or go away
|
| He’s taken every part of me
|
| The mind and soul and heart of me
|
| And if my life is taken up, then what’s the use of breaking up
|
| It’s like an old man playing a new song
|
| He plays a strange chord and all the sound’s wrong
|
| Can’t take a new path now every path is gone
|
| But I’ll hold on, hold on |
