It's where you go when you're in danger
And how you open your disguise
It's your uncompromising anger
It's how you cope with all your ties
If you look over your shoulder
You'll find a kindred soul in meI never said that it was easy
But I need to make you seeWhen the time comes 'round don't slip away
Give me something to hold on to
I'll give you more than you came for
You give me something to hold on toIt's how you look when you are angry
About the things you say you see
The way you search for what you're after
I wish you'd look around at me
I look for you in Blue Jay Way
But find you wouldn't stayI never said that it was easyWhen the time comes 'round don't slip away
Give me something to hold on to
I'll give you more than you came for
You give me something to hold on to
You're the jacaranda in my morning
You're my laser in the night
When the time comes 'round don't slip away
You give me something to hold on toIn field of love and indecision
I'll find you laying in the sun
I might trap you in my whirlpool
Where there's nowhere left to run
Where there's nowhere left to runWhen the time comes 'round don't slip away
Give me something to hold on to
I'll give you more than you came for
You give me something to hold on to
So when the time comes 'round don't slip away
Yeah when the time comes 'round don't slip away
You give me something to hold on to
