(Intro) Unraveling the ball of yarn you call your sensibilities I'm a cat drawn to your deepest ironies Life will smack you on the shins, make you wish you had iron knees One tiny line to make your mind unwind Wait a second, sure, but there goes a lifetime Who’s your one to hold onto? Who's your lifeline? Who will you run to when you're running outta time? (Chorus) Hold on to the ones you hold dear When you close your eyes, they appear And when the shit flies, they lend an ear (Ohhhhh, ohhh, ohhh) Hold your loved ones, (yeah, hold ‘em) Hold your loved ones near (Verse 1) One tiny moment can make you wanna hit rewind But life ain't Netflix, it happens in real time So when life feels right, hold it tight Hold it like something preciously beautiful you wanna keep in sight Maybe it will last, or you may face dynamite And when there's sorrows, it'll keep you up at night (Chorus) Hold on to the ones you hold dear When you close your eyes, they appear And when the shit flies, they lend an ear (Ohhhhh, ohhh, ohhh) Hold your loved ones, (yeah, hold ‘em) Hold your loved ones near (Bridge) Life is unpredictable The end is inevitable We mustn't be oblivious Superglue couldn’t get a grip on this Keep your eyes on the prize, no time for ignorance Love comes with benefits But loss hits deeper... so this is it (Chorus) Hold on to the ones you hold dear When you close your eyes, they appear And when the shit flies, they lend an ear (Ohhhhh, ohhh, ohhh) Hold your loved ones, (yeah, hold ‘em) Hold your loved ones near (Outro) Hold your loved ones near... (Yeah, hold 'em) Running outta time...
