Kansas - Hold On

Thanks to Rick (rickyon) for showing me the new photos :)

Written by: Kerry Livgren
Artist: Kansas
Album: Audio-Visions
Released in: 1980

Lyrics:
Look in the mirror and tell me
Just what you see
What have the years of your life
Taught you to be
Innocence dyin' in so many ways
Things that you dream of are lost
Lost in the haze

(Chorus)
Hold on, Baby Hold on
'Cause it's closer than you think
And you're standing on the brink
Hold on, Baby Hold on
'Cause there's something on the way
Your tomorrow's not the same as today

Don't you recall what you felt
When you weren't alone
Someone who stood by your side
A face you have known
Where do you run when it's too much to bear
Who do you turn to in need
When nobody's there

(Chorus)

Outside your door he might be waiting
Waiting for you
Sooner or later you know
He's got to come through
No hesitation and no holding back
Let it all go and you'll know
You're on the right track
You're on the right track
Yeah!

(Chorus repeating)

Crazy how their best song has so few viewings!!!

If people liked "Carry On Wayward Son" they'd love this.
