Ulysses Cannon Holding On lyrics

When you're hanging on longer than most would expect
You're probably hanging
By your neck

You're too afraid to let go
Too afraid to look down
But darling your feet are already touching the ground

There's no way you could fall
So why are you holding on?


You're spending your days working your life away
You're coming home so late and don't have nothing to say
You feel like you're running in place in a hundred year race.

But friend you're gonna lose if you don't choose
To move on to
What's next for you('ve)
Got smarts and charm and a big ol' heart
And people who love you to keep you from harm.

Yeah there's no way that you could fall
So why are you holding on?
There ain't no way that you could fall

So why are you holding on?


(Solo)


You're not killin' yourself but maybe killin' your soul
man, you don't need that job no more!
Stop looking down and start looking up
Forget about the way it was
Just forget about
The way it was
Because…

There ain't no way that you could fall
There ain't no way you could fall
There ain't no way that you could fall
So why, yeah why
Keep holding on?

Why keep holding on? (repeat)
(There ain't no way that you could fall.)
