Texty: Steve Winwood. Holding On.
Used to live in the danger zone
Any day it could get too rough
Now I'm glad I kept holding on
Now I'm glad I had soul enough
You turned night into day
And showed me how my soul could sing
You took my hurt away
And showed me love conquers anything
When two hearts both feel the same
There's a way to beat the game
Holding on, now I'm standing in the light
Holding on, and this time I got it right
Holding on, every day and every night
Holding on, hold on
Fall asleep in your lover's arms
And it's just like it ought to be
Just be thankful she keeps you warm
In a world where there's nothing free
Give her love every day
And pay attention when she dreams
And she'll be good to you
'Cause sometimes love is just what it seems
When two hearts both feel the same
There's a way to beat the game
Holding on, now I'm standing in the light
Holding on, and this time I got it right
Holding on, every day and every night
Holding on, hold on
See the mountain water
Keeps flowing down into streams
Now it holds on forever
We'll be holding on forever, forever
People soul searching all night long
For a reason to help them live
And I do hope they hear the song
Take and you get to give
It can be in a smile
It can be there in a touch
It warms the world a while
When it's love it can't be too much
When two hearts both feel the same
There's a way to beat the game
Holding on, now I'm standing in the light
Holding on, and this time I got it right
Holding on, every day and every night
Holding on, hold on
Holding on, now I'm standing in the light
Holding on, and this time I got it right
Holding on, every day, every night
Holding on, hold on
Every day and every night
Every night, every night, every night, oh yeah
Holding on, yes, I'm standing, standing in the light
Holding on
Any day it could get too rough
Now I'm glad I kept holding on
Now I'm glad I had soul enough
You turned night into day
And showed me how my soul could sing
You took my hurt away
And showed me love conquers anything
When two hearts both feel the same
There's a way to beat the game
Holding on, now I'm standing in the light
Holding on, and this time I got it right
Holding on, every day and every night
Holding on, hold on
Fall asleep in your lover's arms
And it's just like it ought to be
Just be thankful she keeps you warm
In a world where there's nothing free
Give her love every day
And pay attention when she dreams
And she'll be good to you
'Cause sometimes love is just what it seems
When two hearts both feel the same
There's a way to beat the game
Holding on, now I'm standing in the light
Holding on, and this time I got it right
Holding on, every day and every night
Holding on, hold on

Holding on, now I'm standing in the light

Holding on, every day, every night
Holding on, hold on
Every day and every night
Every night, every night, every night, oh yeah
Holding on, yes, I'm standing, standing in the light
Holding on
