Holdin' on to Something

There's a little girl, wanna make her mine

What she wants I don't know

If red means stop and green means go

Her light is always yellow

I'm wrapped around her finger, she's slipping through my hands

Every time I think I got her, I gotta think again

I'm holding on to something

That keeps letting me go

Just a whole lotta heartache

At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reaching cos I can't stop

Holding on to something

That keeps letting me go

♪

She calls me on the phone, says she's all alone

Feeling kinda lonely

Says she can't wait, so don't be late

I promise her I won't be

Ten minutes later, I'm standing at her door

She's saying, "Never mind, I ain't lonely anymore"

And I'm holding on to something

That keeps letting me go

Just a whole lotta heartache

At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reaching cos I can't stop

Holding on to something

That keeps letting me go

That keeps letting me go

I'm just holding on to something

That keeps letting me go
