"Holding On (Acoustic)" lyrics - RICHIE KOTZEN

It's so easy to see
Where we've been
Made us what we are

We can try to pretend
That it's more
More than what it is

So do it
Lie to ourselves
Know what we know
Act like we're okay

And laugh through the pain
It's maybe the change
Could lift us all

We keep holding on, holding on
To something that we don't believe in
Moving on, moving on
Something keeps us from leaving
All this time is just giving us a past
We both know that
We want something to last

Come on teach me this time
'cause I'm free
My eyes open wide
There's something left to persist
But the dream that we can't define

That's why I can't walk away
All that you say
Is coming from inside
You gotta leave what you can,
Leave what you can behind

We're holding on, holding on
To something that we don't believe in
We're moving on, moving on
But something keeps us from leaving
All this time is just giving us a past
We both know that we want something to last

We're holding on, holding on
To something that we don't believe in
We're moving on, moving on
But something keeps us from leaving
Moving on, moving on
Something keeps us from leaving
All this time is just giving us a past
We both know that we need something to last
