Hang Tight
Words & Music by Jeff Lehman

Hey how are you, I haven't seen you in a long, long time
It's funny how long you've been gone so long
but not gone from my mind
Well it's so good to see that the years have been so kind
But that semi forces smile is a hint troubles on your mind

Hey won't you tell me now that we're here at this table for two
You'll thrill my soul if you spill your soul
You know I got an ear all for you

So life's bitter side has stolen your pride you say
Just like your lit cigarette it will burn itself away
Until it's gone I say

chorus- Hang tight little miss slighted
That rain beaten' down above you is needed for your garden to grow

Hey I hear you I wanna dry your tear stained eyes
Let me buy you a drink and we'll sit here and think
Ain't nothing' we can't overcome

We'll laugh through the pain till we're both half insane tonight
Just light up a smoke and we'll dream about better days
And they're coming' soon I say

(chorus)

Your eyes your eyes are they eyes that see a chance
or have they been blinded by hatred and fear
Your hands your hands are they hands that heal the wound
or are they wrapped in anger around a gun or a knife

(solo)

Hey I'm here, you never have to go too far
I'm your closest friend and I'll stand to the end by you
So your kids on the street, ex old man's gone deadbeat
You've got a fighter a true believer in me
With you sexy ways and your headstrong gaze
You're gonna do fine I say
Keep those starry eyes shining and spread your wings and fly
Nothing really matters like Freddie Mercury said
Let's bring back those partying crazed days

Hang tight
Hang tight
