Album: ON LOVE WE'LL SAIL  |  Song lyrics to: HANG ON TO ALL THE GOOD THINGS

Lead Vocal: Rebecca Rumba
Music: Rebecca Rumba (adapted from 2 Cuban Folk Melodies)
Lyrics: Rebecca Rumba

"HANG ON TO ALL THE GOOD THINGS"

There's times in life
That we don't know what to do
Or which way to go,
Somebody says, "Hang on!"
And somebody else says, "Just let go!"
Either word of advice in its own time
Is worth pure gold.
So hang on to all the good things
And let those bad things go!

Bridge:
'Cause it's true there will always be problems,
So true, yes, that's the law of love.
You're to do the best that you can.
It's true, no, there's no need for worry:
The answer is now on its way.

Chorus:
And that's the way the World can be at times,
But you really don't need to cry or pout,
Everything will finally work out
If you give it time.
Don't you know there is no fear in love,
And if you're patient faith will come,
And replace the doubts that clutter up your mind.

[Repeat intro, verse and bridge]

[Repeat chorus three times and fades]
