Lyrics

[Verse 1]

All that we needed was right

The threshold is breaking tonight

[Verse 2]

Open to everything happy and sad

Seeing the good when it's all going bad

Seeing the sun when I can't really see

Hoping the sun will at least look at me

[Verse 3]

Focus on everything better today

All that I needed I never could say

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to this while it's slipping away

[Verse 4]

All that we needed tonight

Are people who love us and like

I know how it feels to need

Oh, when we leave here you'll see

[Verse 5]

Open to everything happy and sad

Seeing the good when it's all going bad

Seeing the sun when I can't really see

Hoping the sun will at least look at me

[Verse 6]

Focus on everything better today

All that I needed I never could say

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to this while it's slipping away

[Verse 7]

So long

So long

[Verse 8]

Open to everything happy and sad

Seeing the good when it's all going bad

Seeing the sun when I can't really see

Hoping the sun will at least look at me

[Verse 9]

Focus on everything better today

All that I needed I never could say

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

[Verse 10]

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away
