I'm Hanging On
Embracing Redemption: I'm Hanging On
Lyrics
Maybe once or twice in my life
Reflecting on rare occurrences in life.
I thought I held your sweetness in my lungs
Feeling the sweetness of a relationship.
I finally breathed your breathe
Achieving a deep connection, breathing in the essence of the other person.
Like I was supposed to all along
Feeling aligned with one's true purpose.
For a moment I was found
Experiencing a moment of clarity and self-discovery.
And there was you and nothing more
Being with the person and nothing else matters.
And all these cries transposed
Transforming emotional pain into a beautiful expression.
To sing your song
Expressing feelings through a song.
I’m hanging on, I’m hanging on
Clutching onto hope despite challenges.
To the hope of an everlasting morning
Longing for a bright and enduring future.
To the moment when I saw,
Recalling a significant moment of realization.
All these wrongs could be swallowed after all
Believing that mistakes can be forgiven.
I'm hanging on
Persisting in holding onto hope.
Maybe once or twice in my life
Reflecting on past experiences of glory.
I thought I held your glory in my sights
Perceiving the greatness of the other person.
In her radiant eyes, or the mountain side
Noticing beauty in various aspects.
Flush with the same green
Finding commonality in shared experiences.
For a moment I was found
Experiencing a moment of fulfillment.
And there was you and nothing more
Being present with the person alone.
And all these colours were
Seeing the world through the influence of the loved one.
Just an semblance of your touch
Realizing that everything reflects the loved one's touch.
I’m hanging on, I’m hanging on
Clutching onto hope despite challenges (repeated).
To the hope of an everlasting morning
Longing for a bright and enduring future (repeated).
To the moment when I saw,
Recalling a significant moment of realization (repeated).
All my wrongs could be swallowed after all
Believing that mistakes can be forgiven (repeated).
Im hanging on
Persisting in holding onto hope (repeated).
Doubtful as I am you’ll never take me
Expressing doubt but resisting surrender.
The hand that holds my hand he won't forsake me
Trusting in a guiding force that won't abandon.
Sinful as I am I won't be yours
Acknowledging personal flaws but maintaining independence.
In what once was washed a stain can never hold
Recognizing the impermanence of past mistakes.
I’m hanging on, I’m hanging on
Clutching onto hope despite challenges (repeated).
To the hope of an everlasting morning
Longing for a bright and enduring future (repeated).
To the moment when I saw, how all these wrongs could be swallowed
Recalling a significant moment of realization (repeated).
after all
Believing that mistakes can be forgiven (repeated).
Im hanging on
Persisting in holding onto hope (repeated).
