Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Say you to me
You're a bird with an eye
For anything shiny
Just searchin' the land
For a hero of a man
You say I need
More than my fair share of attention
But I think you know
That just isn't so
[Verse 2]
Underneath
I felt the fire of a burning question
Tearing me apart
Right from the very start
And now I see
That it don't take
A trick of the light to excite me
So strong, so long
You'll see
[Verse 3]
Hold on to what you
Been given lately
Hold on to what you
Know you got
Hold on to what you
Been given lately
Hold on 'cause the world
Will turn if you're ready or not
[Verse 4]
Simplicity
A heart of gold, an old head
And young shoulders
Quiet and lovely
Becomin' part of me
And now I see
From a handful of names
And a thousand faces
One light burnin' furiously
[Verse 5]
I was tired of January
I was tired of June
I felt a change a-coming
Oh, I was tired of January
Tired of June
I felt a change a-coming, oh
I felt a change a-coming
I felt a change a-coming
Felt a change a-coming soon
[Verse 6]
Hold on (Hold on)
To what you (To what you)
Been given lately, (Been given lately)
Hold on (Hold on)
To what you (To what you)
Know you got
[Verse 7]
Hold on
To what you
Been given lately
Hold on 'cause the world
Will turn if you're ready or not
[Verse 8]
Whoa, hold on (Hold on)
To what you (To what you)
Have been given lately (Have been given lately)
Hold on to what you (Hold on to what you)
Know you got
[Verse 9]
Hold on to what you (Hold on to what you)
Have been given lately (Have been given lately)
'Cause the world turns whether you're ready or not
Oh, yeah, well the world will turn if you're ready or not
Oh, yes, the world will turn if you're ready or not
