coined the term REM.
ABOUT THE SONG
The
orchestral arrangement was written by Led Zeppelin’s bassist, John Paul Jones.
LYRICS
When
your 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
‘Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts
Sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it’s time to sing along
When your day is night alone, hold on
If you feel like letting go, hold on
If you think you’ve had too much of this life
Well, hang on
‘Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don’t throw your hand
Don’t throw your hand
If you feel like you’re alone
No, no, no- you are not alone
If you’re on your own
In this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you’ve had too much of this life to hang on
Hold on
Everybody hurts
