Hold On

Pain isn't always temporary

But life will never last forever

There is just so much beauty

But it's hard to see while hurt

There are such easy ways out

But they aren't the answers

If you hold on you will see it

wonderful the moments are

I know it hurts, I know you hurt

I've been through it all myself

If I gave up I would never see

Just how beautiful it can be

I saw it in the smiles of children

in the graciousness of others

The random acts of kindness

Of strangers we never knew

And If you give up on today

Tomorrow can not show you

The one thing you will need

To get through all that pain

I know it hurts, I know you hurt

I've been through it all myself

If I gave up I would never see

Just how beautiful it can be

You are beauty

And the world is better

so much better

With you in it

So don't give up

please don't give up

Please don't give up

My darling

Don't give up
