Joy Williams Golden Thread song lyrics

I'm holding on for dear life, it's not looking good

Is it now, is it now?

It's all up in the air and never coming down

Coming down, is it now?

Spinning through my fingers, watch it go

Out of my hands, out of my hands

All over again

I'm hanging on, just hanging by a golden thread

Just wanna know while everything's unraveling

I'm hanging on, just hanging by a golden thread

Don't sew it off; it's lovely tearing at the seams

It's what it is

It's you and me

I'm standing in the in-between of what I was and what I need

Slipping through my fingers, watch it go

Out of my hands, out of my hands

All over again

I'm hanging on, just hanging by a golden thread

Just wanna know while everything's unraveling

I'm hanging on, just hanging by a golden thread

Please don't watch me, please don't watch me cry

Oh I don't wanna be this way

It's harder than it looks, so please don't watch me cry

And admit that I'm frayed

Out of my hands, out of my hands

All over again

I'm hanging on, just hanging by a golden thread

Just wanna know while everything's unraveling

I'm hanging on, just hanging by a golden thread

Slipping through my fingers, watch it go
