Lyrics
Holding On
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.
I'll be holding on for time.
Yes I'll be holding on for time.
I wouldn't deceive you or tell you a lie.
I'll be holding on this time.
Why can't I see for sight?
And do you always have to be right.
There's no recovery because you're the cure and know one answers your
door.
Well it's just so for you to ignore,
we've all made mistakes that we're sorry for.
I hope you realise that I'll make no compromise. I'll be holding on for
time,
'till that time begins to slide.
I once had you, you could have been mine and
I'll be holding on this time.
Well it's just so easy for you to ignore, everybody makes mistakes that
they're sorry for and I hope you realise that I'll make no compromise for
you.
Do you here my words to ignore me?
Look into my eyes to scorn me?
Do I have to get down on my knees?
To break down?
So I'll be holding on for time.
Only you can read my mind.
I once held you close, you could have been mine but I'll be holding on,
yes I'll be holding on this time.
Well it's just so easy to try and ignore,
you've made mistakes yourself.
You were never sorry for and I hope you realise I'll make no compromise
for you but I'll be holding on.
