Hang On Mike

Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's holding on
Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's another song

She can hear me sing from the kitchen
Trying not to blink, not to miss it
Like a tree falling in the forest
The music fills the moment
While dinner's getting colder

Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's holding on
Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's another song

No, my studio is not a bedroom
No, our living room is not a venue
But when I sing to you, my whole world changes
When you smile at my creation
With a standing ovation, telling me to

Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's holding on
Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's another song
You're telling me to

I put the coffee on the night before
And promise to wake up when she has to
We will start again together
Both of our minds are fresh from sleeping
For another day of dreaming

Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's holding on
Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing you're good for, it's another song

Hang on, Mike
If there's one thing I'm hoping for
That you'll be happy or die artistic
From self-expression
In a wave of delivering it
Though you're unhappy
I still feel so lucky
Hang on
