[Intro]
[Verse]
I can see the white cliff
Falling from the plains
Rolling down to the sea
There s an old tree by the window
And the wind beats hard when
the sun goes down,
Down, down, down, in my own town
[Chorus]
And when the morning comes
I won t be around
But if you say the word
I would always stay
And you, hold on to what you ve got
[Verse]
I can still remember driving in the rain
Looking out of an eighteen year old
Through a hurricane
Then the days were longer
Was there something in a kiss
Well I don t know if it s this old place
Or you I m gonna miss
[Chorus]
And when the morning comes
I won t be around
But if you say the word
I would always stay
And you, hold on to what you ve got
[Solo]
[Verse]
Now Here in the heart of the city
That big machine keeps rolling on
The rains still falling down
And I look out over my street
That got caught up in the win
They broke some guy who lived down
the block, and threw him back again
[Chorus]
And when the morning comes
I won t be around
But if you say the word
I would always stay
And you, hold on to what you ve got
[Outro]
And you, hold on to what you ve got
And you, hold on to what you ve got
