I'll Be Holding On
Bloodstone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that you gone away
There's very little left to say
It's just another lonely day
without you
Until you come my way again,
All the memories and dreams without you
My love
I'll be holding on to everything
The way you used to look at me
Warm my heart mysteries
Who Would ever think you ever be so far away
Now again I see your face
And visions that I can't erase
That smiles a woman brings so tender
My love
I'll be holding on to everything about you
I'll be holding on to everything
And I love you so
And I can't let go (no, no)
(Oooh)
I be holding on for the rest of my life
I want you to know that I can't forget you, baby
I'll be holding on to everything about you
I'll be holding on to everything
(Guitar solo)
I can't let go
I'd be holding on for the rest my life
I want you to know (2 times)
You sent me a sweet perfume
Steals from my Lonely room
Words from my very tomb
to haunt me
I Cherish every memory
The pictures here you left with me
and every letter I recieve
I'm gonna treasure
My love
I'll be holding on to everything about you (8 times)
Oh, baby.
(Guitar solo)
