Holding On
L.T.D. Lyrics
Holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
And that's no lie
Holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
Hey, hey, hey, yeah
I get you're unhappy, I know you gotta be (I know you gotta be)
There ain't no sense in cryin', it's time for you to leave (Time for you to leave)
Baby, that's the bottom line
I betcha lie awake nights and never rest a bit
And wish it all would disappear (Yeah)
But still the bottom line is you got to deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair
Said holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
And that's no lie
Holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
Hey, hey, hey, yeah
Ha-ha-ha
Who are you kidding
Doo doo doo doo
Ha-ha-ha
Who are you kidding
Doo doo doo doo
Ha-ha-ha
Who are you kidding
Doo doo doo doo
Ha-ha-ha
Who are you kidding
Said holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
And that's no lie
Holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
Hey, hey, hey, yeah
I get you're unhappy, I know you gotta be (I know you gotta be)
'Cause it can drive you out your mind
There ain't no sense in cryin', it's time for you to leave (Time for you to leave)
Baby, that's the bottom line
I betcha lie awake nights and never rest a bit
And wish it all would disappear (Yeah)
But still the bottom line is you got to deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair
Said holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
And that's no lie
Holding on
Is very hard to do
When love is gone
When love is gone, hey
Holding on
Yeah, yeah, hey, yeah
When love is gone
Oh yeah
Holding on
Holding on is so very hard to do
When love is gone
So very hard to do, yeah, oh said
Ah, yeah
I said
Hey, I said
Listen to me now
When you know the feeling's gone
Then you've got to stop holdin' on
'Cause that makes it twice as bad
You can't give love that you don't have
So why drag it on and on and on
Holding on
Holding on and on and on, yeah
When love is gone
Hey, hey, said that I'm holding on
Holding on
Is so very hard to do when your love is gone
When love is gone
When your love is gone, yeah
Holding on
Is so very hard to do when the love is gone
When your love is gone
Yeah, yeah
Holding on
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone... and that's no lie
Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone
I betcha you're unhappy,
I know you gotta be
'Cause it can drive you outcha mind
There ain't no sense in crying
It's time for you to leave
And baby that's the bottom line
I betcha lie awake nights, and never rest a bit
And wish it all would disappear
But still the bottom line is you got to deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair
Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone... and that's no lie
Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone
Ha, ha, ha, who are you kidding?
Do do do do do
Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone... and that's no lie
Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone
I betcha you're unhappy

'Cause it can drive you outcha mind
There ain't no sense in crying
It's time for you to leave
And baby that's the bottom line
I betcha lie awake at nights, and never rest a bit
And wish it all would disappear
But still the bottom line is you got to deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair
Holding on... is very hard to do
When love is gone... and that's no lie
Holding on... is... very hard to do
When love is gone...
Well you know when the feelings gone
Then you've got to stop holding on
'Cause that makes it twice as bad
You can't give love that you don't have
So why drag it on and on and on
Holding on...
