I hold on, you go strong
happy together, it’s you
always you

it’s all right to retire
cut the painter
pretend that I’m not around
we might as well say goodbye
or I won’t be long

take off your pride
when you’re planning to sleep with a lie
a thief between you and I 
or I won’t belong anymore 

to kiss and tell, to wishing wells
to kingdom come, to go to hell, baby
all you have to do is being set on you 
and hit the rocket chair

I hold on, you go strong
happy together, we’re off to the moon
happy together, it’s you
always you

I gave you everything I had to give
I taught you more than I was fit for
always look two ways before you cross

loose lips ‘till we drift apart
untrue hips to a broken heart
you stick like glue on the rock-bottom truth

no kiss and tell, no wishing wells
no kingdom come, no go to hell
unless all you’re gonna do is being set on you 
you’ll hit the rocket chair
