When the day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go
If you're alone
Cause everybody hurts
Sometimes
Even the singer of this song
Now it's time to sing along
Hold on
Hold on
Cause everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody's sad
Take comfort in your friends
Don't throw your hand
Don't throw your hand
If your day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
If you think you've had enough of this life
Hang on
Cause everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody hurts
Everybody hurts
Sometimes
So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go
If you're alone
Cause everybody hurts
Sometimes
Even the singer of this song
Now it's time to sing along
Hold on
Hold on
Cause everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody's sad
Take comfort in your friends
Don't throw your hand
Don't throw your hand
If your day is long and the night
The night is yours alone
If you think you've had enough of this life
Hang on
Cause everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody hurts
Everybody hurts
Sometimes
So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on
