I`m holdin on to you
When I close my eyes
You`re still in my arms
and we never said goodbye
And it`s all I can do
To go on with my life
But that`s supposed
to be the reason
why I`m here tonight
In a downtown restaurant with
a friend of a friend
Well she sure likes to talk and
I ain`t hearda single word
she`s said
Chorus:
Oh,but every now and then
I nod
And I pretend to pay attention
And I say things like `Uh Huh`
And `Yeah, you`re right` and
`Are you Kiddin`
And I laugh when it seems
like the right thing to do
It`s hard to hold a
conversation
Holdin` on to you
I`d give anything
just to hear your voice
or see you look at me and smile
Oh but what I miss the most
Is holdin` on to you
`Cause here I am tonight
Starin at a woman
Who`s the last thing on my mind
