Hold on (feat. Noel Dashwood)

I used to work most everyday

Now my life blood has trickled away

But no attention they pay

We lived alright with open arms

Now the doorbell rings bittersweet alarms

Hold on, the frost on the window will thaw

Hold on, and greet the stranger who stands in your door

The mood’s unsettled, time’s overripe

And those that we trusted don’t care if they’re honest

As long as they win

So hold on to compassion

And see through your neighbour’s eye

Hold on, the frost on the window will thaw

Hold on, to the love that you just can’t ignore

Hold on, the frost on the window will thaw

Hold on, the stranger’s a stranger no more
