what happened to your mother s love what happened to your daddy s pride you know you always had enough you know they were right by your side what happened to that ball of fire when you got out on that open road now nothing but your own desires will lighten up this heavy load hold on hold on hold on i know you didn t plan for this but that s the way it always starts just lookin for a little kick instead you bought a broken heart and now you have to build a bridge that only you can walk across wear the truth until it fits pay the price and bear the loss hold on hold on hold on once you were a little kid working on a great big plan you threw away the simple joys and now you have to take a stand a battle s raging in your head you wish you didn t have to fight just hold onto my hand instead another day goes by tonight what happened to your mother s love what happened to your daddy s pride they re way down deep inside your blood to help you through this lonely ride hold on hold on hold on
