HOLD THE LIGHT
Jane’s still waiting for him tonight
By the porch light
Its been so long
Since he’s been gone
But no one’s really coming back home
Lynn’s been holding on too long
With her baby in her arms
Thinking that he’ll change someday
But every day
He goes the other way
And everyone who used to say
There’s gonna be a better day have lied
So who’s gonna pay the bills or take the pills
To get through this life
Hold the light
Hold the light
Mary still works there every night
Down the riverside
Even though there’s nothing there
Back in her room
Her sister still needs care
And everyone who used to say
There’s gonna be a better day have lied
So who’s gonna pay the bills or take the pills
To get through this life
Hold the light
Hold the light
Oh my my
Hold the light
Kim still wakes with a fright
In the middle of the night
Wondering why they left her there
There’s no one home
The walls are bare
And everyone who used to say
There’s gonna be a better day have lied
So who’s gonna pay the bills or take the pills
To get through this life
Hold the light
Hold the light
Oh my my
Hold the light
