There's got to be a future
Hold on
Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
Or the world will end today
The sun will melt away
The sky so dark decay
And summer, spring, and autumn, winter
Melt into a single moment
Whored into the past
Like a stream run dry at last
Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
To create and to defend
So the world can never end
Hold on
Things can't be quite so bad
That all we have and all we had
Never worry won't return
Lost in a fire that cannot burn
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
Or the world will end today
Look around, look around
The rain is falling from the sky
Planes taking off to fly
Swooping birds and barking dogs
Shopping malls and catalogues
Traffic stopped on busy streets
Lovers lying between the sheets
Business models, computer freaks
Modern artists, new techniques
Money comes and money goes
Children cry and still suppose
There's got to be a future
Hold on, hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
Or the world will end today
Hold on, hold on
There's got to be a future
Hold on
