Holdin' On

Cigarettes and a lighter

Lonely woman, swinging door

Broken pieces of a broken love affair

I guess we've seen all that before

Tonight she stares to the darkness

Welcomes it back home again

She'll cry every night 'till the day that she dies

If she don't find out how to let love in

I need somebody to save me

I need to learn how to fly

Walk on the clouds with the angels

Laugh when the devil cries

I've got to take my chances

Spend my nights in wild romances

And hold on to what is holdin' on to me

Doesn't this all seem familiar

You said I took the words from your mouth

So maybe if we sit here and talk for awhile

Mmm, we just might work it all out

And the hardest thing about leaving

Is knowing when a friend is a friend

A couple more drinks and I'll be on my way

Sleeping and down, safe in your arms again

I need somebody to save me

I need to learn how to fly

Walk on the clouds with the angels

Laugh when the devil cries

I got to take my chances

Spend my nights in wild romances

And hold on to what is holdin' on to me

I got to take my chances

Spend my nights in wild romances

And hold on to what is holdin' on to me, yeah
