Pierce Pettis - Hold on to That Heart lyrics

Molly works on the children's ward The ones that aren't gonna make it She holds those little hands And says a prayer sometimes She just can't take it I lay me down to sleep Pray my soul to keep If I die before I wake Souching at the bar She says some people are hard They look at me like I'm crazy Chorus (I say) Hold onto that heart Hold on to the love you know Hold on to that heart (Molly/boy/child) don't let it go He picks up the telephone She says how you doing He says I'm alright No that's wrong But I'm getting through it I used to have a wife Used to have a life It wasn't that long ago She says you're going through hell I have been the myself But you can be strong I know (You just) Chorus Whatever is honest Whatever is true Whatever is loving and lives in you Think on these things And hold on I saw you being born You'll probably see me die And in between those two points Is so little time I just hope you know Daddy loves you so Though I'm not always there to hold you And when your world falls down And I'm not around Just remember what I told you Chorus
