Blood Sweat and Tears

I dream of open roads
I've seen those broken souls
Sleeping in doorways
Just out of the rain

We've all been young with dreams
Knew everything by eighteen
But life has its own way
Of showing you pain

So, hold on, a little longer
Hold on, a little more
Hold on, a little longer
Hold on, a little more

Oh, the time I lost along the way
Oh, the love I lost to fear
Only god knows the high price I paid
I paid with hurt, with heart and years
With blood, with sweat and tears

We all start out full of hope
Bright eyed we fly from home
Determined to save the day
But the world doesn't like to change

Like footprints left in the sand
We're here then we're gone again
We all have to find a way
To live in today

So, hold on, a little longer
Hold on, a little more
Hold on, a little longer
Hold on, a little more

Oh, the time I lost along the way
Oh, the love I lost to fear
Only god knows the high price I paid
I paid with hurt, with heart and years
With blood, with sweat and tears
I paid with hurt, with heart and years
With blood, with sweat and tears
I paid with hurt, with heart and years
With blood, with sweat and tears
