Sam Phillips - The Indescribable Wow

Holding On To The Earth Lyrics

by Sam Phillips
Album: The Indescribable Wow (1988)



If I close my eyes
Im afraid I wont wake up
If I stop and listen
Im afraid Ill hear too much

Trying to hold on to the earth
Holding on for what its worth

Ive got a long black cadillac
Marble hot tub in the back
Champagne waterfall
Solid gold question mark twenty feet tall

Try to paint a world of shapes
Over the holes as were falling
The tightened grip is our mistake
As were trying to hold on to the earth

Looking for his name
Wet on brave lips carved on road
Look for flame and mercy
Hope that tired hands can hold
