  • Singing to myself
    Singing for the neighbours
    Holdin' on for work
    Holdin' on to paper

    I was on the left
    You were only fading
    I was on my own
    Starin' at the ceiling

    Hold, holdin' out

    Read it on a map
    Never how I planned it
    Holdin' on for work
    Taking it for granted

    I was looking up
    I was being blinded
    Holdin' on for work
    Hopin' that I'd find it

    I was looking up
    Holding on to patience
    Counting up the days
    Days that I'd been waiting

    You can take your time
    I'll be on the front porch
    Keepin' on the light
    You can see it if you look for it

    I would lie awake in the night
    Hopin' that one day I'd arrive
    I had waited all my life

    Yeah I was holdin'
    Holding you
    Yeah I was holdin'
    Waited for you
