I’m Gonna Hold On As Long As I Can

Frank Wilson, Lena Manns

Ooohh, time is runnin' out
On this cold-hearted night, oh yeah
And the whole world seems stopped around
Without you by my side (yes it does)
Oh, I realize I'm not the one you want
But understand it you're the one I need

So I'm gonna hold on as long as I can
Hold tight as I can
Hold on long as I can
Hold on tight as I can

Words don't come easy
With these teardrops in my eyes, oh my
And I, walkin' around in a stupor
Just like a helpless child, yes I am
Oh, I realize that things have changed
But the sweet, sweet memories still remain

I'm gonna hold on as long as I can (oh yes I am)
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Hold on long as I can (Hold on long as I can)

Yeah, every beat of my heart
Keeps tellin' me to hold on
Mmm
Every day that we're apart is tellin' me to hold on
Oh 'cause [?] on it [?] break of dawn
I reach out to touch ya and I'm alone
I look in the mirror, my eyes are red
From crying all night long from the things you said
'Cause then I'm gonna...

Hold on as long as I can, oh yes I am!
(Hold on long as I can)
I've got to, got to hold on as long as I can
(Hold on long as I can)
'Cause I love ya [?]
(Hold on long as I can)
I know I've got to hold long, long, long, long as I can
(Hold on long as I can)
Oh yes I am!
