Taking Hold Lyrics

Should I be scared cos to tell the truth I'm terrified

It hides behind the shadow of a smile

You should take care of yourself my son or you might find

The lines might take you there before your time

These should be the best years of our lives

It's time to feel alive

Wasted days down in the basin of our youth

Chasing the high

Life is a lesson but I left my pen at home

And hit the road

And I can feel it taking hold

So you better go

I'm not a liar or a cheat

I won't repeat the keys I keep

Locked in a box inside my head

I think I'll hit the bar instead

Of taking this all out on you

I'll tell you when the time is right

These should be the best years of our lives

It's time to feel alive

Wasted days down in the basin of our youth

Chasing the high

Life is a lesson but I left my pen at home

And hit the road

And I can feel it taking hold

So you better go

I've put the smiles on the faces

Of some people I don't know

I felt the tears running of your cheek

And I couldn't stop them flow

And if the road is rough ahead then

Maybe we could go by boat

I'll stop at nothing cos I'm telling you

I feel it taking hold

These should be the best years of our lives

It's time to feel alive

Wasted days down in the basin of our youth

Chasing the high

Life is a lesson but I left my pen at home

And hit the road

And I can feel it taking hold

These should be the best years of our lives

It's time to feel alive

Wasted days down in the basin of our youth

Chasing the high

Life is a lesson but I left my pen at home

And hit the road

And I can feel it taking hold

So you better go
