Don't Let Go - Tom Jones

I remember when daddy used to tell us bedtime stories

As we went to sleep, choosing words that last forever, ooh

And when I’m feeling lost, thinking that I cannot find my way

Those words still come to me while I’m kneeling down to pray

I can hear daddy say, 'Keep the faith and hold on

And don’t let go of the promises in what he said

Troubles don’t last always"

Don’t let go to the mystery of his word

'Cause joy’s gonna come in the morning

Don’t let go, don’t let go, ooh

I remember times I try to do it all my way

It always seemed to end with me falling on my face, ooh

The long and winding road sometimes turn into a pile of sand

Those words still come to me while I’m kneeling down

Kneeling down to pray

I can feel my daddy say, «Keep the faith and hold on

Don’t let go of the promises in what he said

Troubles don’t last always», ooh

Don’t let go to the mystery of his word

'Cause joy’s gonna come in the morning

Daddy said, «All the angels are singing in heaven

And I know they can be heard everywhere

Through the trials and tribulations we go through

We can hear them singing everywhere», yeah, everywhere

Singing don’t let go of the promises in what he said

Troubles don’t last always

Don’t let go to the mystery of his word

'Cause joy’s gonna come in the morning

Don’t let go

(Don't let go)

Daddy said, «Always keep the faith»

(Don't let go)

Faith is the substance of things hoped for

(Don't let go)

Evidence of things not seen

(Don't let go)

Hold on to your dreams

(Don't let go)

He said, 'No one can tear you down'

(Don't let go)

Once ya have the knowledge, boy

(Don't let go)

Don’t let nobody steal ya joy, ooh

(Don't let go)

Don’t cha lean to ya own understanding

(Don't let go)

Letcha Father directcha path

(Don't let go)

Speak it, see it, dream it

(Don't let go)

Then you can believe it

(Don't let go)

And you can live

(Don't let go)

My daddy told me

(Don't let go)

Now that your body’s the temple

Spirit the most high, God lives within you, boy

I said," Thank you, father, ooh

Daddy, I won’t let go, you put your love so deep inside of me

And all of my brothers and sisters

I’m so glad you were a grand man

(Don't let go)
