Hold On (i'm On My Way) Lyrics - Chris De Burgh

Now the days are getting longer 

My dreams are growing stronger 

I need to be back home again 

With the one I love 

Not a job to be had where I'm from 

No one left, it seems they've all gone 

Up there in the northern towns 

Shipyards closing down 

Oh but here in the south 

I've had enough 

It's time to go back home

Hold on cause I'm on my way 

You're going to feel my kisses come today 

Hold on when I'm on the train 

You're going to hear that whistle blow 

Be strong cause I'm on my way 

You're going to feel my loving arms today 

Not long till I'm on the train 

You're going to hear that whistle blow 

Many more have had to leave now, 

Gotta find a job and somehow, 

Make a living in a different world 

That our fathers knew 

Better days will surely be here, 

I got to go cause I gotta see her. 

So hard for those at home, 

Waiting all alone 

Photos 

And when you call at night 

and you begin to cry 

It's time to go back home 

Hold on cause I'm on my way 

You're going to feel my kisses come today 

Hold on cause I'm on the train 

You're going to hear that whistle blow 

Be strong cause I'm on my way 

You're going to feel my loving arms today 

Not long cause I'm on my train 

You're going to hear that whistle blow 

You're going to hear that whistle blow 

You're going to hear that whistle blow 

Hold on 

Hold on, cause I'm on my way 

Hold on 

Hold on, cause I'm on my way 

Hold on 

Hold on, cause I'm on my way 

Hold on 

Hold on, cause I'm on my way 

Hold on
