Lyrics

The signs are getting clearer
Clearer than you need
The writing's on the wall
For you to see
You never thought you'd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and I'll find the key
Just reach out and touch, it's all yours
If you hang in long enough
You'll do it
Well, just hang in long enough
You're down on the ground broke
Or so you say
You would sell a hole in your pocket
If you could find a way
Don't ask me how I know
'Cause you don't wanna hear
It's been a long road
And the end is getting near
You never thought you'd ever get the chance
You never thought your break would come along
If you tell me what you want, I'll find a key
Just reach out and touch, it's all yours
If you hang in long enough
You will get it
Well, just hang in long enough
They always say
The best things in life are free
But you wanna have everything
Well, you're gonna have to beg if you want it all
(You're gonna have to beg)
So hang in long enough
And you'll do it
Just hang in long enough
Well, they'll let you out
Well, then pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions
You'll feel like giving in, yeah
Just hang in long enough
And you'll do it
Just hang in long enough
And you'll do it
Yeah, hang in long enough
And you'll do it
(Hang in)
(You will do it)
(Hang in)
(You will do it)
(Hang in)
(You will do it)
(Hang in)
(You will do it)
