David Gray Holding On [Live] lyrics

Baby, now don't look back
Don't let those feelings start
Don't let the line go slack
When you're pulling it all apart
How to describe the sky
Or dismantle a beating heart

I guess we're just holding on
Baby, we're holding on
Honey, we're holding on
To the world

Seeking assurances
Some kind of guarantee
There has to be more than this, oh now
More than the eye can see
Holding the lanterns high
While we sink with our vanity

I guess we're just holding on
Baby, we're holding on
Honey, we're holding on
To the world

Now baby, we're holding on
Oh now, we're holding on
Honey, we're holding on
To the world

Now I'm gonna love you
Like the spring bursts from the ground

Unfurling from the ground
Unfurling from the ground

Faces of buildings, trees
All that is stoned, inert
Here in these empty streets
Well, it silently does assert
That we are just passing ghosts, honey
Vapors of joy and hurt

And here we're holding on
Yeah, we're just holding on
Honey, we're holding on
To the world

Baby, we're holding on
Oh now, we are holding on
Oh baby, we're holding on
Yeah now, we're holding on

Honey, we're holding on
Baby, we're holding on
Honey, we're holding on
To the world

Baby, we're holding on
To the world, yeah
