Hanging On Too Long Lyrics - Rockferry - Duffy

It was just my mistake 

Thinking you cared 

It was just my mistake 

Thinking you'd be there 

That you'd be by my side 

And that you wouldn't lie 

My mistake 

It was just my false hope 

Thinking we'd last, yeah 

It was just my false hope 

Forgot all your pests 

All those girls you denied 

Smashed up hearts hung out to dry 

[Chorus] 

I know it's wrong 

Hanging on too long 

I know it's wrong 

Hanging on too long 

But I beat 'em all 

Hanging on too long 

I was a fool for you 

Right from the start, yeah 

I was a fool for you 

Hoping for a spark 

For some kind of sign 

That you would be mine 

[Chorus] 

My heart was clutching 

To one fair right 

My head was pumping 

It could put up a fight 

[Chorus] 

And I need to move on 

I'm hanging on too long 

[Chorus]
