They say patience is a virtue
But I've been waiting too long
I believed in your promises
And it hurts to see I was wrong
The one more tries, the sleepless nights
The countless tears that I've cried
Chorus:
Lt Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone
Stairways leading down to nowhere
Roads that never end
Why keep on going 'round in circles
To break my heart again [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/w/wild_orchid/holding_on.html ]
Caressed my hair, then left me there
Alone but you don't care
Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone
I used to think that I should blame myself
But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else
Now here's a me, you've never seen before
As you're watching me walk right out the door
Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone
