(Jerry Chesnut)
|
We're holding on with nothin' left to hold on to
|
I'm so tired of holding on to nothin'
|
The years have shown no kindness for the hard times that we've been through
|
We've squeezed the life from every dream and still go on bluffin'
|
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 at 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
|
[ steel ]
|
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 fakin'
|
God only knows how long how hard we've tried
|
Oh why do we keep holding on...
|
We're holding on with nothing left to hold on to
|
