[Verse 1]
First touch of summer, she's got your t-shirt on
Sun's going down, school's out, stars are coming on
You can rewind it, but you can't ever feel like you do tonight
Make a movie in your mind, but don't rush it
Boy, you're about to see the light
[Chorus]
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feeling
Hang on to your love-drunk original reason
Hang on to the small town you love, but you're leaving
Oh, you won't be a fool for so long
So hang on
[Verse 2]
If you listen to the voices inside, they won't do you wrong
You can look back over your shoulder, yeah, but don't look too long
It takes time to realize that your life's gonna pass you by
[Chorus]
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feeling
Hang on to your love-drunk original reason
So hang on to the small town you love, but you're leaving
'Cause you won't be a fool for so long (Hey)
[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
All these things take time, these things, they take time
All these things I've learned, it's never a straight line
'Cause all these things take time, these things, they take time
[Chorus]
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feelings
Hang on to your love-drunk original reasons
'Cause all these things take time, these things, they take time
And all these things I've learned, it's never a straight line
So hang on to the light in your eyes and the feeling
So hang on to your love-drunk original reason
So hang on to the small town you love, but you're leaving
Oh, you won't be a fool for so long
So hang on
[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
Yeah, hang on
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time
Hang on
All these things take time, these things, they take time
Hang on
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, these things, they take time

“Hang On” is about that feeling you get when good things in life happen for the first time. It’s about remembering the bravery and vulnerability it took to be present in those moments.

I approached it thinking about things I experienced in life—the first things, the first kiss and the first sunset. What was it about them that made them so special? I think a lot of it was how open and vulnerable I was to the experience more than the experience itself. To me, it’s a reminder of what...
