Holdin' Onto Something

There's a little girl, wanna make her mine

What she wants, I don't know

If red means stop and green means go

Her light is always yellow

I'm wrapped around her finger

She's slipping through my hands

Every time I think I got her, I gotta think again

I'm holdin' on to something

That keeps lettin' me go

Just a whole lot of heartache

At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reachin', I can't stop

Holdin' on to something

That keeps lettin' me go

She calls me on the phone

Says she's all alone

Feelin' kind of lonely

Says she can't wait so don't be late

I promise her I won't be

Ten minutes later I'm standin' at her door

She's sayin', "Never mind, I ain't lonely anymore"

I'm holdin' on to something

That keeps lettin' me go

Just a whole lot of heartache

At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reachin' 'cause I can't stop

Holdin' on to something

That keeps lettin' me go

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reachin', I just can't stop

I'm holdin' on to something

That keeps lettin' me go

(Holdin' on to something)

(That keeps lettin' me go)

I'm holdin' on to something

That keeps lettin' me go

(Holdin' on to something)

(That keeps lettin' me go)
