Project Nest - Hold On Lyrics

For 20 long years its all that he's known
Love, sweat, and tears, this was his home
For all his hard work, they sent him off to welfare

He's off the line but there's bills left to pay
The company's gone and he's living day to day
Nobody's hiring, nobody seems to care

And the kids don't know why
Daddy's home all day
While others live high
And he's buried beneath the weight

But if he'll hold on, hold on
It won't be so long
"Til the night slips away
There's hope in a new day
Hold on, hold on

After 30 odd years, he left her behind
Trading her in, to go back in time
Now she's alone with her fear and her sorrow

And she doesn't know how
She can ever trust again
For those sacred vows
Have been tossed into the wind

But if she can hold on, hold on
It won't be so long
'Til the night slips away
And hope finds a new day
Hold on, hold on

Its always dark before the dawn
Just hold on, just stay strong
And though its hidden love is there
Waiting to shine, waiting to shine on you

Oh

And if we hold on, hold
It won't be so long
'Til the night slips away
And hope finds a new day

Hold on, hold on
It won't be so long
When the night slips away
To the hope of a new day
Love finds a way
In the hope of a new day
Night slips away
In the hope of a new day - we'll see
The sun is going to rise
