When you were asleep
And I was out walking
The voices started to speak
And they wouldn't stop talking
There were signs all around
It really got my mind racing
You were right all along
Something's gotta change
Hold on
Hold on there now for me
Hold on
Cause everything's coming up roses,
Roses
Now we're back on the street
Found a song that's worth singing
The bloody nose of defeat
While your victory bell's ringing,
My whole life's turned around
For this thing you keep chasing
You were right all along
That's me who's got to change
Hold on
Hold on there now for me
Hold on
Cause everything's coming up roses
(Hold on, Hold on)
Aaahhh
(Hold on, Hold on)
Aaahhh
(Hold on, Hold on)
(Hold on, Hold on)
Aaahhh
(Hold on, Hold on)
Aaahhh
(Hold on, Hold on)
Aaahhh
(Hold on, Hold on)
Hold on
Hold on they're not for me
Hold on
Cause everything's coming up...
Roses
(Everything's coming up roses
Everything's coming up roses
Hold on, Hold on)
Roses
(Hold on, Hold on
Everything's coming up...
Hold on, Hold on
Everything's coming up...
Hold on, Hold on)
Roses
(Hold on, Hold on)
Roses
And I was out walking
The voices started to speak
And they wouldn't stop talking

You were right all along
Something's gotta change
Hold on
Hold on there now for me
Hold on
Cause everything's coming up roses,
Roses
Now we're back on the street
Found a song that's worth singing
The bloody nose of defeat
While your victory bell's ringing,
My whole life's turned around
For this thing you keep chasing
You were right all along
