He gives another smile, tries to understand
Her side
To show that he cares
She can't stay in the room
She's consumed with everything
That's been goin' on
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Everything will be alright, he assures her
But she doesn't hear a word that he said
Preoccupied, she's afraid
Afraid that what they've been doing not right
He doesn't know what to say, so he prays
Whatever, whatever, whatever
(Chorus)
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand
Don't let go of my hand
Don't let go of my hand
He's working day and night,
Thinks he'll make her happy
Forgetting all the dreams that he had
He doesn't realize it's
Not the end of the world
It doesn't have to b
E that bad
She tries to explain,
"It's you that makes me happy,"
Whatever, whatever, whatever
(Chorus)
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
