Hang On To Me Lyrics - Every Child A Daughter, Every Moon A Sun - The Wooden Sky

Mother to our people 

She still got some things to prove 

Pressed to find a reason 

You know, I could name a few 

But sometimes I want a baby 

And oh, what can I do 

Morning brings another empty womb 

Hang on to me 

You're the only thing I have 

To wash my body clean 

Oh and guide me on my path 

You know they held love like a trophy 

Like they've never been on their knees 

But when it gets too dark to see 

You always calm me down 

I nearly fell to pieces 

Trying to wear my daddy's shoes 

I'm working on a sequel 

You know good things come in twos 

She said your love makes me crazy 

And someday I'll have to choose 

Lover, that same trouble is just old news 

Hang on to me 

I'm the only chance you've got 

Set your body free 

And keep you from falling apart 

And when they held love like a trophy 

Like they've never been on their knees 

It's a lonely life to lead 

And I could've spared you that
