Still Holding On

(Album: Deliver - 1983)

When I was young I was sure I never could grow old
I was gonna Climb Mountains, sail the seas, go searchin for gold
But those years come creeping in and the journey gets so long
I don't spring back like I used too but I'm still holding on

Holding on to what I believe in – be it right or wrong
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I'm still holding on

Thought I'd found true love I was sure it never could end
I was blinded by the light in her eyes, couldn't see round the bend
Then one night she said good bye – I turned around she was gone
Shook my head – shed my tears – but I'm still holding on

Holding on to believing that love is a good thing – even though she's gone
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I'm still holding on

Oh at night when the cold wind blows and my collar is pulled up high
I'm all alone in a god forsaken place wondering why
A man only does what he must do and the journey must go on
Brush myself off laugh at the wind cause I'm still holding on

Holding on to what I believe in – even though it's wrong
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I'm still holding on

Holding on to what I believe in – be it right or wrong
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I'm still holding on
