David Gray - Holding On lyrics

Baby now don't look back Don't let those feelings start Don't let the line go slack, when you're Pulling it all apart How to describe the sky Or dismantle a beating heart Baby we're holding on Here we are holding on Baby we're holding on To the world Seeking a**urances Some kind of guarantee There has to be more than this, oh now More than the eye can see Holding the lanterns high, while we Sink with our vanity Here we are holding on Guess we're just holding on Baby we're holding on To the world Now I'm gonna love you Like the spring bursts from the ground Unfurling from the ground Unfurling from the ground Faces of buildings, trees All that is stone, inert Here in these empty streets, well it Silently does a**ert That we are just pa**ing ghosts, honey Vapours of joy and hurt And here we are holding on Baby we're holding on Yes we're just holding on To the world Here we are holding on Baby we're holding on Here we are holding on Yes we're just holding on Here we are holding on Baby we're holding on Guess we're just holding on to the world
