I pick a star shining so bright And I spread my wings, then wonder why When you're holding the whole thing I know you're holding the whole thing You take the sunshine, you take the rain And you wonder why I can't do the same But you're holding the whole thing I know you're holding the whole thing Do you ever see me when I fly Painting all the colors in the sky When you're holding the whole thing I know you're holding the whole thing There are days I compromise And I try to see life through your eyes But you're holding the whole thing I know you're holding the whole thing I will never know the reason why You never falter, you never cry And you're holding the whole thing I know you're holding the whole thing But do you ever wake up in the morning Feeling like your strength might just give way Do you ever see me when I'm falling through this hole And wonder if you should let go Of me Do you ever see me when I fly Painting all the colors in the sky When you're holding the whole thing I know you're holding the whole thing Holding the whole thing I feel you holding the whole thing
