I'm Gonna Hold On As Long As I Can lyrics

Ooo time is runnin' out on this poor heart of mine, oh yeah
& the whole world seems dark around me without you by my side, yes it does
Oh I realize I'm not the one you want, but understanding for the one I need
So I'm gonna hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can
Oh hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can

Words don't come easy with these teardops in my eyes, oh no
& I've walked around in a circle just like a helpless child, yes I have
Oh I realize that things have changed, but the sweet sweet memory still remains
So I'm gonna hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can
Oh hold on as long as I can, hold on as tight as I can

Every beat of my heart keeps tellin' me to hold on
Every day that we're apart is tellin' me to hold on
Oh 'cause every mornin' right at the break of dawn
I reach out to touch you, but now you're gone
I look in my mirror & operator
I've cried all night long from the things you did
I'm gonna hold on as long as I can, oh yes I am (hold on as tight as I can)
I'm gonna hold on as long as I can, 'cause I love you, 'cause I care
I know I'm gonna hold on I'm gonna hold on long long long
