Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
Hold on


Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future

Or the world will end today

The sun will melt away

The sky so dark decay
And summer, spring, and autumn, winter
Melt into a single moment

!@^%d into the past
Like a stream run dry at last
Hold on, hold on


There's got to be a future
To create and to defend

So the world can never end
Hold on


Things can't be quite so bad
That all we have and all we had
Never worry won't return

Lost in a fire that cannot burn
Hold on, hold on


Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
Or the world will end today


Look around, look around
The rain is falling from the sky

Planes taking off to fly
Swooping birds and barking dogs
Shopping malls and catalogues


Traffic stopped on busy streets
Lovers lying between the sheets


Business models, computer freaks
Modern artists, new techniques

Money comes and money goes
Children cry and still suppose
There's got to be a future


Hold on, hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future

Or the world will end today
Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future

Hold on
