Belle Perez Hang On To Yourself Lyrics

Hang On To Yourself Lyrics

When I was a little girl

My mama used to say

Don't do this

Don't do that

Now go outside and play

Well here I am

About five years old

Just another girl

Dancing on the doorstep to the world



And that's where Cupid shoots

And Cupid fails

I'm not afraid to say

I'm seventeen

Right in between

But I know I'm on my way

The mirror tells me

You're so fine

You should be having fun

But I'm standing on the crossroads

Of my highway to the sun



I gotta go for it

I gotta do it myself

Ain't gonna get much help

From anybody else

And I do believe

It's what I really want

To hang on to myself baby

I hang on to myself



Let me tell you

Today I'm still that little girl

I used to be back then

I don't give up

I won't give in

One day you'll understand

Here I am

I sing this song

Not just another girl

Standing on the threshold to your world



You gotta go for it

You gotta do it yourself

Ain't gonna get much help

From anybody else

So if you do believe

It's what you really want

Just hang on to yourself baby

Just hang on to yourself



Hello?

Some people say

One day baby you will see

Who is this?

You're gonna take that ride

For your destiny

It's your bubble girl

You better grab it while you can



You gotta go for it

You gotta do it yourself

Ain't gonna get much help

From anybody else

So if you do believe

It's what you really want

Just hang on to yourself baby

Just hang on to yourself
