Sniff 'N' The Tears We Hold On
Pulled back from the edge of heartbreak by a hand that held me
A grip of steel around my throat and round my eyes
The road to my disenchantment it could have led me to the edge of love
But I held on to that thread of compromise
We hold on
To the lines that tell the story
We hold on
To that old familiar sound
We hold on
To the songs of love and glory
We hold on
Even when they let us down
And then we turn around
She'd been broken in love but she bounced back anyway
She had a nose for these things she always rose to the highest ground
She had taken her vows on the altar of the true believer
And she believed that bad luck would always turn around
We hold on
To the lines that tell the story
We hold on
To that old familiar sound
We hold on
To the songs of love and glory
We hold on
Even when they let us down
And then we turn around
We met one day in the way they always say in all the stories
My guard was up while hers was down
Pretty soon by the light of the moon in June in all its glory
The love that I'd never lost became the love I'd found
We hold on
To the lines that tell the story
We hold on
To that old familiar sound
We hold on
To the songs of love and glory
We hold on
Even when they let us down
And then we turn around
