Holding On
Ginger Williams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I′ll be here again
'Cos I′ve been alone
Waiting around
For the day to come
To hear you say
We'll get married some day
But I get the feeling
I got to go my way
I don't want our love to go astray
I could fend some more of those lonely days
The patience of love is holding on
I don′t know how long I can go on
But I keep on holding on for your love
But I keep on holding on for your love

I hear you just say
I should leave you alone
But you can not understand
How I feel
I give you in my clothes
I give you on my mind
So so I just can′t keep on
Holding on
I don't want our love to go astray
I couldn′t fend some more of those lonely days
The patience of love is holding on
I don't know how long I can go on
But I keep on holding on for your love
But I keep on holding on for your love




Keep on holding on for your love
I just keep on holding on for your love

Overall Meaning

The song begins with her saying that she'll be there again because she's been alone, waiting for the day to come when she'll hear her partner say they'll get married someday. However, despite her hope, she gets the feeling that she has to go her own way. She doesn't want their love to go astray, but she recognizes that she can't keep fending off those lonely days forever. Despite this, she still holds on to the hope that her partner will come around.


Throughout the song, the singer emphasizes that she is holding on for the love of her partner. Although they may think she should leave them alone, they don't understand how she feels.

The lyrics in "Holding On" are a reflection of the human desire for love and commitment, and the struggle that comes with waiting and holding on to someone who may not reciprocate those feelings.

on I'll Still Love You

I'll still love you - Ginger Williams

I'll still love
I'll still love you baby
For better or worse I'll stay with you
I'll still love you baby
Come what may you're the key to my door without you
I can't get in, Oh no

I'll still love you
I'll still love you baby
From the bottom of my heart I'll stay with you
I'll still love you baby
We'll never part I'll give everything I owned just to hold you close

Love sweet love
How sweet it is, to be in love with you
Holding you
By my side fulfill my heart desire

I'll still love you
I'll still love you baby
Heaven knows I'll stay with you
I'll still love you baby
Till the end you have the key to my heart, don't even depart hold on

My nights were so lonely, The days were so dark
You came along and made it bright.
I love you for everything you do to make me happy.
I love.

Love sweet love
How sweet it is, to be in love with you
Holding you
By my side fulfill my heart desire

I'll still love
I'll still love you baby
For better or worse I'll stay with you
I'll still love you baby
Come what may you're the key to my door without you
I can't get in, Oh no

I'll still love you
I'll still love you baby
I'll still love you
I'll still love you baby
