I'm Gonna Hold On As Long As I Can |
Ooo time is runnin' out on this poor heart of mine, oh yeah |
& the whole world seems dark around me without you by my side, yes it does |
Oh I realize I’m not the one you want, but understanding for the one I need |
So I’m gonna hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can |
Oh hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can |
Words don’t come easy with these teardops in my eyes, oh no |
& I’ve walked around in a circle just like a helpless child, yes I have |
Oh I realize that things have changed, but the sweet sweet memory still remains |
So I’m gonna hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can |
Oh hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can |
Every beat of my heart keeps tellin' me to hold on |
Every day that we’re apart is tellin' me to hold on |
Oh 'cause every mornin' right at the break of dawn |
I reach out to touch you, but now you’re gone |
I look in my mirror & operator |
I’ve cried all night long from the things you did |
I’m gonna hold on as long as I can, oh yes I am (hold on as tight as I can) |
I’m gonna hold on as long as I can, 'cause I love you, 'cause I care |
I know I’m gonna hold on I’m gonna hold on long long long |
