Text: Shawn Colvin. Hold On To The Good Things Album.
It's a beautiful world,
It's a beautiful day
Un unusual time,
Is coming our way
We're on an adventure,
Hip-hip hooray
Up in a balloon,
I'm sailing with you
On top of the world,
WE got nothing to do
There's a silvery lining
And the sun is shining
Hold on to the good things, darling
Hold on to the kindness
Hold on to the beautiful melodies
And leave those worries behind us
A little of this, a little of that
The recipe calls, for a pat in the back
With you and me anything's possible
Friends are here to remind us
It's all about friends,
It's all about love
And having someone
That you know you can trust
We're in this together
It's all about us
I'm feeling so good,
I'm feeling no pain
I'm washing my troubles,
Right down the drain
Life is unfolding
Gotta keep on going
Hold on to the good things, darling
Hold on to the silver lining
Hold on to the beautiful melodies
And leave those worries behind us
Hold on to the good things
A little bit high, a little bit low
A little bit hey, ho-ho-ho
A little bit high, a little bit low
A little bit hey, off we go
Hold on to the good things, darling
Hold on to the kindness
Hold on to the beautiful melodies
And leave those worries behind us
You can look to the east,
You can look to the west
You can look to someone,
Who loves you the best
So good to be part of the family,
Friends are here to remind us
Shawn Colvin
