Holding On For Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Girl take a seat, rest your weary bones

Your secrets safe in my hands

Tell me about the years and let me buy an hour

Maybe help me to understand

Ain't nobody callin, ain't nobody home

What a lovely day to be lonely

[Hook]

You're holding on for life, holding on for life

Holding on for love

You're holding on for life, holding on for life

Holding on for love

[Verse 2]

Light another cigarette, burning in the cold

Waiting on the street for your man

You're trying not to look so young and miserable

You gotta get your kicks while you can

In the lighted corner, sitting on your own

What a lovely day to be lonely

[Hook]

You're holding on for life, holding on for life

Holding on for love

You're holding on for life, holding on for life

Holding on for love

[Bridge]

Well you might belong to another time

Still you have to carry on here

No where else to go and you never know

What to hide and what to show

[Hook]

You're holding on for life, holding on for life

Holding on for love

You're holding on for life, holding on for life

Holding on for love
