The Bend Lyrics by Solomon Burke & De Dijk

Hold On Tight

0

It ain't the gamble, it's the chance
It's the road, it's not the map
It's not the answer, it's the asking
It's the catch and not the trap
It's the joy, it's not the cheering
It's the key, it's not the lock
It ain't solving, it's the riddle
It's not the store but what's in stock
It ain't you, it's who you love
It's time, it's not the clock
I see your eyes and not your looks
Not the squeezing, oh but the juice
It's the hole, it's not the digging
It's the truth, it sure ain't the news
It's not living, it is life
It's the meaning and not the end
It's the cut, it's not the knife
It's your home, it ain't the rent
It ain't speeding, it's driving
Not the white lines
Not the white lines but the bend
Not the white lines but the bend
It's expression, it ain't cashing
It's the breeze and not the trees
It's the cause and not the bashing
It's a smile and not the cheese
It ain't the liquor, it's the drinking
It's not the figure, it's the count
It's the floating, not the swimming
It's not where you are but where you're bound
To know instead of thinking
It's your heart, it's the sound
In your heart it's the sound
It ain't the buzz, it's an inspiration
It's the secret, not the hype
It's the building up, not demolition
It's the person, not the type
Not fulfillment, it's the hoping
Taking part and not the best
It's the tasting, not the topping
It's not the case but the test
Not struggling but coping
It's not the grail but it's the quest
Not the grail, it's the quest
