Holding On To Nothin'

(albüm: Just The Two Of Us - 1968)

We're holding on to nothing left to hold onto

I'm so tired of holding on to nothing
The years have shown no kindness
For the hard times we've been through

We've squeezed the life from every dream
And still go right on bluffing
With really nothing left to hold onto

Oh, why do we keep holding on with nothing left to hold onto
Lets be honest with each other
That's the least that we can do
I feel guilty when they envy me and you
We're holding on with nothing left to hold onto

We were young and foolishly mistaken
Victims of a passion much too strong to be denied
With only tears to show for all the years that we've been faking
God only knows how long how hard we've tried

Oh, why do we keep holding on with nothing left to hold onto
Lets be honest with each other
That's the least that we can do
I feel guilty when they envy me and you
We're holding on with nothing left to hold onto
