Holding On
The Almighty Trigger Happy / Good Riddance / Satanic Surfers / Ill Repute Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've thought it through & I think you're right
And you're not missing much
There's something pure
That you can't hold against a simple touch

So many choices and the pressure
We all bring to bear
Your strength works miracles
And touches those who try to care

I believe in you
And I hope you see it through
Your resolve is inspiration in my life
It takes a lot now

So few who feel the same
When it means enough
Not to give it away now
Finding it hard

Not to think in terms of yesterday
Finding it strange
That somebody else could feel that way
It must be hard sometimes

To stand behind your chastity
And I wish that I could be the one




But it's not me I'll never set you free
Hold on because you've got a lot to believe in
