Hang Tight

Hang tight Just when it seemed to be giving my life a happiness injection My inner compass went black, and I lost any sense of connection Tears and curling in a ball, this time everything seemed like it was right Till my insides came crashing down, don’t panic I got to just hang tight Too many fires to keep them contained and under control Embers flying in every direction, burning through to my soul Well, they can knock me down but I’m getting back on my feet tonight Despite how it looks like I’m just falling apart, I know inside I got to hang tight Troubles from way back, and the new ones added to the load on my back Have caused me to stumble and go astray but I’m getting myself on track I’m not too old to learn new tricks, this dog has still got plenty of fight And I’m gathering all my best juju, cause I know it’s not easy, but I got to hang tight Hang tight and trust that I’m not going to fall And even if I do, I’m getting back up and standing tall Hang tight with my baby, not going to ever let go Water our love with the tears we shed, and we will grow Hang tight and don’t get down or be reduced to a scowl and a growl Failure’s not an option, cause baby there’s no way I’m throwing in the towel Honey believe in me, hold my hand and tell me you still love me tonight Yeah, baby I know it’s a battle, but just trust in me and hang tight Oh, my pretty baby hang tight Tim Windisch 12/14/2021
