We're holding on
With nothing left
To hold on to
I'm so tired
Of holding on to nothing
The years have shown
No kindness
For the hard times
We've been through
We've squeezed the life
From every dream
And still go right on bluffing
With really nothing left
To hold on to
Oh, why do we keep holding on
With nothing left
To hold on to?
Let's be honest with each other
That's the least that we can do
I feel guilty when they envy
Me and you
We're holding on
With nothing left
To hold on to
We were young and foolishly mistaken
Victims of a passion
Much too strong to be denied
With only tears to show
For all the years
That we've been faking
God only knows how long
How hard we've tried
Oh, why do we keep holding on
With nothing left
To hold on to?
Let's be honest with each other
That's the least that we can do
I feel guilty when they envy
Me and you
We're holding on
With nothing left
To hold on to
We're holding on
With nothing left
To hold on to
