"Holdin' On To You" Lyrics

I'm holdin on to you
When I close my eyes
You're still in my arms
And we never said goodbye
It's all I can do
To go on with my life
But that's supposed to be
The reason why I'm here tonight.

In a downtown restaurant
With a friend of a friend
Well, she sure likes to talk
And I ain't heard a single word, she's said.

Chorus:
Oh, but every now and then I nod
And I pretend to pay attention
And I say things like, uh huh
And Yeah, you're right and are you kiddin'
And I laugh when it seems
Like the right thing to do
It's hard to hold a conversation
Holdin' on to you.

I'd give anything
Just to hear your voice
Or see you look at me and smile
Oh, but what I miss the most.

Is holdin' on to you
'Cause here I am tonight
Starin' at a woman
Who's the last thing on my mind.

Chorus:
But every now and then I nod
And I pretend to pay attention
And I say things like, uh huh
And Yeah, you're right and are you kiddin'
And I laugh when it seems
Like the right thing to do
It's hard to hold a conversation
It's hard to hold a conversation
Holdin' on to you.

When I close my eyes
You're still in my arms
And we never said goodbye...
