The sound of your velvet drum
Keeps me moving on, oh yeah
You've always been the one
Who can keep me, hanging on, hanging on
Oh, oh aah ahah
Aah, baby yeah yeah

You've always been a trip, without a chart
You've always seen right through me
Into my heart
Oh oh oh oh
Oh yeah yeah

You got me, hanging on
You got me, I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on to you by my fingertips
I'm hanging on to you til I slip
I'm hanging on by my fingernails
Hanging on to these cold cold rails

You got me, hanging on
You got me, hanging on
Hanging on you by the skin of my teeth
Hanging on to you, for your sweet relief
I'm hanging on to your mystery train
I'm hanging on to you, I'm hanging on again
You got me babe, hanging on
You got me babe, I'm hanging on."
