[length: 03:12]
[00:22.13]In the middle of the night,
[00:23.93]When everyone is sleeping
[00:27.84]Once the bands have died down
[00:29.17]And our brothers and our sisters have gone
[00:33.25]I feel the shaking in my sides,
[00:35.30]Conscious and familiar
[00:38.49]I pace some unfamiliar street
[00:39.63]Until I pass out or calm down enough
[00:43.57]And I can’t tell you how desperate some times I’ve gotten
[00:48.90]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
[00:54.87]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[00:57.78]I’m coming home
[01:00.21]Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[01:02.87]I nearly lost you
[01:05.50]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[01:08.96]I’m coming home
[01:11.84]And in the middle of the day, when the heat keeps on rising
[01:17.26]The fear of sickness, or breakdown or infidelity
[01:19.48]Makes its rounds
[01:22.38]And in the drag of the late afternoon, settling in to evening
[01:28.04]Well, that I just can’t describe with a dry eye or American words
[01:33.37]And I can’t tell you how many times I just want to lie down
[01:38.67]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
[01:44.39]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[01:47.23]I’m coming home
[01:49.84]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[01:52.89]I nearly lost you
[01:55.66]Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[01:58.13]I’m coming home
[01:59.79]
[02:12.67]You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos
[02:15.62]And your old fifty-five that you drove through the roof
[02:17.97]Of the sky up above these indifferent stars
[02:21.71]While you just kept coming apart
[02:23.28]Hold on, hold on, hold on!
[02:25.84]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on Maria
[02:31.06]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
[02:34.17]I’m coming home
[02:37.11]These records and these bands and electric guitars really matter
[02:42.19]To these hands and these arms and this tired Irish heart made of stone
[02:47.64]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
[02:51.23]Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
[02:52.47]You gotta just hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
[02:56.72]Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
