  • The cast was made to reset broken bones
    But there's no such thing to fix a love gone wrong
    Keep knocking the door 'cause I know someone's there
    I wait on the porch hoping someday, I'll be let in
    They say in the end everything will be okay
    If it's not okay, well then, it ain't the end

    Had dreams to you I would belong
    Had the dream you would stay with me 'til kingdom come
    Turns out forever has come and gone
    Am I the only one hanging on?

    Hand in hand, yeah, we took it on
    You answered my prayers, now from my knees, I can't get up
    Lost patience with time, yeah, hurry up your patience tonight
    I'd like some of yours, in trade, can take all of mine

    I dreamt to you I would belong
    Held the dream you would stay with me 'til kingdom come
    Turns out it was more like hit-and-run
    Am I the only one hanging on?
    Whoa, am I the only one hanging on?

    If you could see what I see now
    You'd find a way to stay somehow
    Oh, if you could see, yeah, what I see now
    You'd make your way to stay somehow

    May your days be long 'til kingdom come
    May our days be long before kingdom come
    May our days be long until kingdom come
    We can become one last setting sun
    Am I the only one hanging on?
    We could become one last setting sun
    Or be the sun at the break of dawn
    Let us not fade
    Let us not fade Writer/s: Andrew Wotman, Eddie Vedder, Jeffrey Ament, Matthew Cameron, Michael McCready, Stone Gossard
