Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let me step outside myself
Will you try to hold my hand?
What if I told you
When the smoke clears
You're the only one who can?
[Verse 2]
I know I've tried you
Defied and denied you
Thrown punches in the air
Closed my eyes and count to ten
Praying you'd still be standing there
[Chorus]
Hang in there, darling, won't you?
The best is yet to come
We have shut this city down
Too many times to cut and run
But if there's still gold in those hills
I owe it all to you
I thank my lucky stars that I've got someone to
Someone to belong to
[Verse 3]
Your voice is ringing in my mind
You are tattooed on my soul
From the never-ending highway
To the strings of my piano
[Verse 4]
What if I hold you like a liar?
I've been broken and it shows
But even the water catches fire
Even the moon is full of holes
[Chorus]
Hang in there, darling, won't you?
The best is yet to come
We have shut this city down
Too many times to cut and run
But if there's still gold in those hills
I owe it all to you
I thank my lucky stars that I've got someone to
Someone to belong to
[Chorus]
Hang in there, darling, won't you?
The best is yet to come
We have shut this city down
Too many times to cut and run
But if there's still gold in those hills
I'm handing it to you
I get down on my knees and pray that you'll find someone to
Someone to belong to
[Outro]
Find someone to
Someone to belong to
Find someone to
Someone to belong to
