Holding On

By Mildred Douglas (1990)
On album Face One (1990)

Mildred Douglas
I keep wishing
Some forgotten song
Makes you change your mind

You keep asking em
Why you doing me wrong
What is on your mind

What you gonna do about it when the fire is gone
The look in your eyes
says your heart is on the run
What you gonna do about it when the fire is gone
Can't you see it's slippin' away

But you keep holding on
Though someone else but me is on your mind
I ain't gonna wait forever
You keep holding on
Though someone else but me is on your mind
I ain't gonna wait forever
'Cause I've been holding on too long
And I can let go now

You keep talking
About forgotten times
What was on our minds

And I keep searching
For a secret sign
Something hard to find

What you gonna do about it when the fire is gone
The look in your eyes
says your heart is on the run
What you gonna do about it when the fire is gone
Can't you see it's slippin' away

You keep holding on
Though someone else but me is on your mind
I ain't gonna wait forever
You keep holding on
Though someone else but me is on your mind
I ain't gonna wait forever
I've been holding on too long
And I can't let go now
