Lyrics: Irwin Sparkes
Music: Irwin Sparkes
I could end it all
Just a shift of body weight
Sun rising as I fall
From the top of the golden gate
But she won't let me go
Take my final bow
Slight turn on the steering wheel
But I was brought back round
Remembered how I'd make her feel
She won’t let me go
All I've ever known
Comes down to being held
Such a simple move
Makes up for letting go
Accidents occur
Who will mend the hole they leave
Painfully aware
A thread from a catastrophe
But she won't let me go
Sharpening their knives
While I tie my shoe-laces
Big bad world outside
Hold onto your condolences
She won’t let me go
And in the blink of an eye
None of this matters
A flick of the tail
We’re washed upon the shore alone
We’re crying out for consent
Our blood for approval
How many of us know a life that’s built upon much less
I’ll hold onto you
There will come a day
Let’s see what tomorrow brings
When she will let me go
