Lyrics

When the day is long
And the night, the night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough of this life
Well, hang on
Don't let yourself go
Everybody cries
And everybody hurts, sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong
Now, it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone
If you feel like letting go
When you think you've had too much of this life
Well, hang on
Everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you're not alone
If you're on your own in this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much of this life
Well, hang on
Well, everybody hurts
Sometimes, everybody cries
And everybody hurts, sometimes
Everybody hurts, sometimes
Hold on
Hold on
(Hold on)
Take comfort in your friends
(Hold on)
Take comfort in your friends
(Hold on)
If you feel like you're alone
(Hold on)
And the days and nights are long
Hold on
Hold on
(Hold on)
'Cause everybody
Hurts
Sometimes
