Holding On Lyrics - Palace Of Gold - Blue Rodeo

I wouldn't mind if you told me I was wasting time 

It's hard for me here trying to say these things with you so near 

I'm already undone, already undone 

Now is the time I should leave these useless things behind 

But fool that I am, I try to stay inside of your latest plan 

I'm already undone 

This time I promised myself that I wouldn't sink so far 

But here I am, I'm wrapped around you in the glow of this empty bar 

I wish I could hold my tongue and finally say goodnight. 

Am I holding on too tight? 

Hours ago I could pride myself on some control 

But plans that I've made disappear with every drink that's laid 

I'm already undone, already undone 

Yeah, there's a way but I can't even keep one single word I say 

And I've been wrapped around your finger from the very first day 

I wish my legs would work and I could run out in the night 

Am I holding on too tight? 

I wouldn't mind if you put me out of my hurt some time 

I'm waving the flag, chasing beauty shouldn't be such a drag 

I'm already undone, already undone 

Now I am lost and I can't even feel my head 

While you and all your friends are laughing about something you wish you'd said 

Am I holding on too tight? 

I wish I could just reach up and turn out every light. 

Yes I know I'm holding on too tight.
