Have you ever felt like you lost someone
Even while they're by your side?
Like nothing's real and you can't heal the wound between you
No matter how hard you try
Have you ever made out like everything is A-ok
When really it's already come undone?
If that's the way you spend your days and nights then oh love
I want you to keep holding on
I want you to keep holding on
Yeah I want you to keep holding on
I know life can be unkind
And you've got heaven on your mind
But I want you to keep holding on
Have you ever had time to think things over until you see so clear
What more you could have done?
You're sick and tired of waking up the same oh every morning
Making bets on moving on
And I don’t know why
You want me to continue now
And it's no surprise
You do
Oh and if I could I
I would tell you what it's worth it for
But I can't lie
To you
Oh I want you to keep holding on
Yeah I want you to keep holding on
'Cause I know life can be unkind
When you've got heaven on your mind
But I want you to keep holding on
'Cause I know you pray every night of your life
I know you held out for a savior deep inside
And though it hurts my heart to say it
Life is just a game
And we all lose
Yeah we all lose
Yeah I want you to keep holding on
Yeah I want you to keep holding on
I know life can be unkind
And you've got leaving on your mind
But I want you to keep holding on
Yeah I want you to keep holding on
Yeah I want you to keep holding on
I know life can be unkind
And you've got heaven on your mind
Please keep holding on
