The gold verandah in the dark has gone,

Down to the metal man,

No better time to leave the ground,

And maybe try to understand,



You gotta hold on to somethin' that you believe,

Hold on to somethin' that makes you feel alright,



And through the darkest times of your life,

You always tried to be the one,

And now the times have made you wonder,

If you ever knew what was going on,



You gotta hold on to somethin' that you believe,

Hold on to somethin' that makes you feel alright,

Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright.



(Solo)



No use thinkin' about what you ain't got,

Just makes you bitter,

And as you speak everything you say,

Goes out on the Big Transmitter,



You gotta hold on to somethin' that you believe,

Hold on to somethin' that makes you feel alright,

Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright.
