Gerry Rafferty - Hang On lyrics

When life gets tough

When this old road gets rough

What happens to me and you

What do we do -- we hang on.

When you confess

Your life is in a mess

And only you can muddle through

What do you do -- you hang on.

Love is blind, love is kind

What do you do when it leaves you behind

Like yesterday's papers -- like yesterday's news.

You don't wanna be all by yourself

You don't wanna be left on the shelf

When you're feeling small and tired of it all.

Those lonely days

Those sad and lonely days

Left sad and blue without a clue

What do you do -- you hang on.

Love is real -- love can heal

What do you do when the love that you feel

Turns out to be one dream that never came true.

You imagined it was so much more

Now you're stranded on another shore

And you don't expect to resurrect.

A love gone wrong

A love that was so strong

Left sad and blue without a clue

What do you do -- you hang on.
