Nights, nights can be so cold
Without someone to hold
Man was never meant to be alone
And days, days can be so long
How can I go on without you?
I'm haunted by those memories
Everywhere I turn I see your face baby
I thought forgetting would be easy to do
But I realize that you just can not be replaced
I'm holding on
Loving in the past
I'm holding on
Don't know how long it's gonna last
Oh I'm holding on
Since you've been gone
I keep holding on (holding on)
Holding on - ooh baby
Dreams I have come to fear
Seeing you appear
'Cause when I wake to find that you're not there
Maybe tomorrow will bring an end to the sorrow I feel
(I feel, I feel, girl)
I'm haunted by those memories (those memories)
Everywhere I turn I see your face baby
I thought forgetting would be easy to do
But I realize that you just can not be replaced
I'm holding on
Loving in the past
I'm holding on
Don't know how long it's gonna last
Oh I'm holding on
Since you've been gone
I keep holding on (holding on)
Holding on - ooh baby
Lovers come and go
But you know it's a shame
When I'm making love to someone else
And calling out your name
Holding on
I'm holding on
Loving in the past
Don't know how long it's gonna last
Since you've been gone
Keep holding on
Holding on
