WILD ORCHID LYRICS - Holding On

"Holding On"



They say patience is a virtue

But I've been waiting too long

I believed in your promises

And it hurts to see I was wrong



The one more tries, the sleepless nights

The countless tears that I've cried



[Chorus:]

lt Why should I keep holding on

When I know someone new is holding you

Why should I keep holding on

I gotta let go, cuz love's already gone



Stairways leading down to nowhere

Roads that never end

Why keep on going 'round in circles

To break my heart again



Caressed my hair, then left me there

Alone but you don't care

Why should I keep holding on

When I know someone new is holding you

Why should I keep holding on

I gotta let go, cuz love's already gone



I used to think that I should blame myself

But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else



Now here's a me, you've never seen before

As you're watching me walk right out the door

Why should I keep holding on

When I know someone new is holding you

Why should I keep holding on

I gotta let go, cuz love's already gone
