The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're holding on to what we used to be.
You used to make my hungry body tremble
I used to take for granted you love me
And though now we never seem to hold each other
We're holding on to what we used to be.
As long as there's a dream we'll keep dreaming
As long as there's a mem'ry to revive
As long as there's a prayer we'll keep praying
We'll find a way to make our love survive.
Two foolish hearts today depending on tomorrow
To teach us half as sweet as yesterday
And though now we never seem to hold each other
We're holding on to what we used to be.
We're holding on to what we used to be.
