Deeper than I’d ever thought
These roots are
Thicker than the skin I’ve worn
But darling I can see
That which lies before us
Will be evergreen
Richer that you’ve ever known

Just hold out for a little bit longer

Longer, longer, longer, longer, longer, longer
Hold out for a little bit longer
Longer, longer, longer, longer, longer, longer

Deeper than I ever thought
Your bloodline
Painted with the shades of fall
But darling I still see
That which lies before us
Will be evergreen

You say your line is deciduous
I say the fruits are all here just
Hold out for a little longer
Surrounded by amber and ochre
It’s hard to move past what we’ve known but
Hold out for a little bit longer

Longer, longer, longer, longer, longer, longer
Hold out for a little bit longer
Longer, longer, longer, longer, longer, longer

Keep it up now girl don’t fold
They’ll be times when it gets cold but
Keep it up now girl don’t fold
They’ll be times when it gets cold

The warmth fades
We shiver
Don’t let go
Don’t give up
It won’t last forever
