There's always trouble from what I hear Everyone we know is breaking up this year Yeah, trouble, nothing new But I never thought I'd have this trouble with you I lost my one way ticket home I'm at a busted telephone And I got no way to show you you're not alone Oh mercy, mercy me Maybe for a minute I wanted to be free But then I saw what I had to lose They say the narrow path is the hardest to choose I got a one way radio Communication's slow And I got no way to show you you're not alone (Chorus) Hold on, on baby, hold on I'm sorry I did you wrong Hold on, on baby, hold on Please don't you say so long When we look up from this mess We'll see our stars were only taking a rest And now they're lining up east to west So hold on There's always trouble, look around and see But I'm not in the kind I thought I'd be Isn't it always true? The thing you had to learn was the thing you thought you knew I got a new humility, I think you'd like to see (Chorus) Hold on, on baby, hold on I'm sorry I did you wrong Hold on, on baby, hold on Please don't you say so long When we look up from this test We'll see our stars were only taking a rest And now they're lining up east to west, So hold on, hold on, hold on
