STILL HOLDING ON

I tried
to hold all the fears I had inside
but I should have realised
it’d take a miracle to pull me through
now at the end of the day
I’m still holding on to you

It’s OK
to just walk away
should you lose the inclination to stay
(that’s what they say)
but they don’t confess the emptiness
that selfishness can bring us to
so at the end of the day
I’m still holding on to you

I’m so small, but you’re so tall
you pick me up should I happen to fall
now I’m standing in your shadow
but I don’t mind if I do
‘cos at the end of the day
I’m still holding on to you

Well I tried
to hold all the fears I had inside
you know I had this plan to be Superman
but I’m still human through and through
and at the end of the day
I’m still holding on to you.
