"Holding On (When Love Is Gone)" Lyrics

Holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
And that's no lie.
Holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
Hey, hey, hey, yeah.

I betcha you're unhappy.
I know you gotta be, (I know you gotta be.)
'Cause it can drive you outcha mind.
There ain't no sense in crying.
It's time for you to leave (Time for you to leave.)
And baby, that's the bottom line.
I betcha lay awake nights and never rest a bit
And wish it would all disappear. (Yeah.)
But still the bottom line is you gotta deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair.

Said holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
And that's no lie.
Holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
Hey, hey, hey, yeah.

Ha, ha, ha, who are you kidding?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo.
Ha, ha, ha, who are you kidding?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo.
Ha, ha, ha, who are you kidding?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo.
Ha, ha, ha, who are you kidding?

Said holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
And that's no lie.
Holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
Hey, hey, hey, yeah.

I betcha you're unhappy.
I know you gotta be, (I know you gotta be.)
'Cause it can drive you outcha mind.
There ain't no sense in crying.
It's time for you to leave (Time for you to leave.)
And baby, that's the bottom line.
Oh, I betcha lay awake nights and never rest a bit
And wish it would all disappear. (Yeah.)
But still the bottom line is you gotta deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair.

Said holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
And that's no lie.
Holding on
Is very hard to do when love is gone.
When love is gone. Hey.
(Holding on) Hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah.
(When love is gone.) Oh.
Holding on so very hard to do,
(When love is gone) So very hard to do.

Oh, I said.
I said.
Oh, I said.
Hey, I said.
Listen to me now.
Well, you know when the feeling's gone,
Then you've got to stop holding on,
'Cause that makes it twice as bad.
You can't give love that you don't have.
So why drag it on and on and on

(Holding on) And on and on and on and on?
Yeah.
(When love is gone) Hey, yeah, yeah.
Said holding on
Is so very hard to do when your love is gone.
Oh, holding on
So very hard to when your love is gone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Holding on when love is gone.
