Weight of love on my shoulders

I thought that it would be easier than this

I found my heart had grown colder

But the warmth of your kiss, I can't dismiss

Though my past has left me bruised

I ain't hiding from the truth

When the truth won't let me lie right next to you

But it's holding on

And it's holding strong

Even though I tried to make it

Played the part, but I can't fake it

It keeps holding on

And it's holding strong

Even though I tried to break it

Heaven knows that I can't shake it

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on

I've seen times that were harder

I remember the taste of bitterness

Won't you help me, my father?

Help me fall in the love that I have missed

Though my past has left me bruised

I ain't hiding from the truth

When the truth won't let me lie right next to you

But it's holding on

And it's holding strong

Even though I tried to make it

Played the part, but I can't fake it

It keeps holding on

And it's holding strong

Even though I tried to break it

Heaven knows that I can't shake it

Whoa

Whoa

Holding on

Holding on

But it's holding on

And it's holding strong

Even though I tried to make it

Played the part, but I can't fake it

It keeps holding on

And it's holding strong

Even though I tried to break it

Heaven knows that I can't shake it

Holding on

Holding on

It keeps holding on

It keeps holding on

It keeps holding on

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on

Holding on
