Just Hold On

Just hold on and never let go,
Through the deep blue trenches across the pebbly reef,
In the unfamiliar ocean in the endless blue,
Just hold on and never let go,

Just hold on and never let go,
Through the hot sahara desert,
Across the arctic winter snow,
In this obscure world, In this baffling globe,
Just hold on and never let go.

In this eerie world in this isolated globe,
In the cruel water,
The starving desert The bitter winter storm,
You held on but let go.
