|
I'm holdin' on to you |
|
When I close my eyes |
|
You're still in my arms |
|
And we never said goodbye |
|
And it's all that |
|
I can doTo go on with my life |
|
But that's supposed to be the reason |
|
Why I'm here tonight |
|
In a downtown restaurant with a friend of a friend |
|
Well, she sure likes to talk |
|
And I ain't heard a single word she's said |
|
Oh, but every now and then |
|
I nodAnd I pretend to pay attention |
|
And I say things like, "Uh huh" |
|
And, "Yeah, you're right" and "Are you kiddin'" |
|
And I laugh when it seems |
|
Like the right thing to do |
|
It's hard to hold a conversation |
|
Holdin' on to you |
|
I'd give anything |
|
Just to hear your voice |
|
Or see you look at me and smile |
|
Oh, but what |
|
I miss the most |
|
Is holdin' on to you' |
|
Cause here |
|
I am tonight |
|
Starin' at a woman |
|
Who's the last thing on my mind |
|
But every now and then |
|
I nodAnd I pretend to pay attention |
|
And I say things like, "Uh huh" |
|
And, "Yeah, you're right" and "Are you kiddin'" |
|
And I laugh when it seems |
|
Like the right thing to do |
|
It's hard to hold a conversation |
|
Yea, it's hard to hold a conversation |
|
Holdin' on to you |
|
When I close my eyes |
|
You're still in my arms |
|
And we never said goodbye |
