V1
THESE DAYS RATTLE MY CAGE
I RUN AT NO STOP TO SMELL A ROSE PACE
NEVER NOTICE A COTTON FIELD
OR THE SMELL OF COTTON CANDY ON A FARRIS WHEEL 13
BUT WHEN YOU LAY DOWN BY MY SIDE GIRL I FEEL SO REDEEMED
AND YOU ALWAYS SHINE LIGHT ON MY LIFE WHEN YOU SAY TO ME
CHORUS
HOLD ON TO BEAUTIFUL HOLD ON TO EVERY DAY
TO A BEACH SUN RISE IN YOUR MIND
SO YOU CAN HIT REWIND AND PLAY
HOLD ON TO BEAUTIFUL, THAT’S WHAT YOU SAY TO DO
HOLD ON TO BEAUTIFUL, SO I HOLD ON TO YOU
V2
I'D LIKE TO CLIP THE WINGS
ON THE HANDS OF FATHER TIMES TIME MACHINE
SLOW IT DOWN SO IT COULDN'T FLY
FREEZE IT IN A FRAME OF ME LOOKING IN YOUR EYES
MAKE LOVE AND THE MOMENT LAST ON IT ETERNITY
PUT BOTH MY ARMS AROUND YOUR HEART, LET GO OF EVERYTHING
CHORUS
AND HOLD TO BEAUTIFUL, HOLD ON TO EVERY DAY
TO THE BLACK AND WHITES IN YOUR MIND
SO YOU CAN HIT REWIND AND PLAY
HOLD ON TO BEAUTIFUL, THAT’S WHAT YOU SAY TO DO
HOLD ON TO BEAUTIFUL , SO I HOLD ON TO YOU
