But the only thing to do is let you go
I wanted to speak
I wanted to say
But all these different words got in the way

Someone said to me

It just [bad word] [bad word] Life's great mysteries
Tend to [bad word] clearer
Once you've seen them through

Holding your head above water
Holding your heart in your hands
Holding your sons and your daughters
We're just holding on...

It doesn't seem right

I wanted to speak
I hope you find the happiness you seek

Another said to me
Be careful what you dream

Is knowing you are loved
And knowing you love too

Holding your head above water
Holding your heart in your hands
Holding your sons and your daughters
We're just holding on...

Holding your head above water
Holding your heart in your hands
Holding your sons and your daughters
We're just holding on...
