Can´t hold on Paroles

had opinions and independent views

they dreamed of nights and big city lights

it helped to kill each dreary day

and all the things that gettin' out would bring

if only they could get away

he say



I can't hold on 'cause I'm feelin' strong

but there's so many things I'm not knowing


and the little boy got into one more fight

and the girl next dorr said "I miss my home"

he said "believe in me"

she said "I don't know"

he said "can't you see?"



I can't hold on 'cause I'm feelin' strong

and there's so many things I'm not knowing

and I can't hang round this one-horse town

when my soul's tied down, I'm for going



so the little boy became a broken man

with a broken face and broken dreams

and the girl next door disappeared one day

and in her place

was a woman-child, with long red hair

and a price per hour, that she feels is fair



I can't hold on, I'm not feeling strong

there's so many things that hurt me now

and I can't step down from this big cold town

where my soul's tied down
