Holding On Lyrics

HOLDING ON

Driving home along the Hudson, the water shivers in the night
I look where you live, it draws me in but I don't want to fight
Making plans for some, some future heaven, some cocoon for eternal life
We know it's crazy but it keeps us sane, it brings the heaviness to light

All the golden tint of our predictions may be exactly what both of us see, but
Today is a long, long way from then and who can tell how we will feel, I'm just

Holding on to you
Holding on for some some decision to end this impatience
I, I won't let go, I won't let go, no


Three years and counting since we lost our innocence, a heart of gold I had found
But your life was calling, and you had to answer, and I was homeward bound

Ooh suddenly, all the air that I breathed, grew thinner in my throat
And with frozen eyes, and wondering if I'm livin a lie in you so far, so remote

Ooh, your touch, your voice, the only things that help me make any sense of this
I miss you, all your delight, but what's the difference without you here?

I'm just holding on to you
Holding on for some decision to end this impatience
I won't let go


I'm holding on to you
Holding on for some incision to cut this relation
I won't let go

Now it seems it's never enough, whether we're here or apart
And I've been thinking way too hard baby, when are you gonna start?

Ari Hest is an American singer-songwriter. Born in the Bronx and raised in a musical environment (his father is a professor of music, his mother a professional singer), Hest began writing songs for the guitar in his mid-teens. Despite his parents' professional interests, Hest considers himself a self-taught musician. Hest is a 2002 graduate of New York University.

A veteran of the small club circuit, particularly in and around his native New York City, Hest recorded and issued his first three albums on his own. Incomplete (1999), a collection of six songs, was originally intended as a demo to circulate among club owners to help secure performing engagements. Incomplete began selling well at shows, and led to the production of two more full-length albums, Come Home (2001) and Story after Story (2003). Hest's first commercial release from a national record label, Someone to Tell, was released by Columbia Records in 2004. Read more on Last.fm.
