Robert Cray › Lyrics › Holdin' On

I'm holdin' on
I'm just holdin' on
Hey, hey, holdin' on
I was really wrong
Now, she's really gone

I used to hold her
I'd never let her down
When she needed me
I was always around

But hey, that's all over, now
I was really wrong
Now she's really gone

When temptation found me
Wicked water had its way
Day turned into night
Night turned into day

And then I read my fortune
In the bottom of a glass
It said, "She's leavin' you
"You've had your last chance"

I'm warning you, brother
Take my advice, love your woman
Morning, noon and night

Or you'll end up all alone
Like me in an empty room
Just holdin' on, just holdin' on

Oh, when temptation found me
Wicked water had its way
Day turned into night
Night turned into day

And then I read my fortune
In the bottom of a glass
It said, "She's leavin' you
"You've had your last chance

I'm warning you, brother
Take my advice, love your woman
Morning, noon and night

Or you'll end up all alone
Like me in an empty room
Just holdin' on, just holdin' on, oh
