Holding On To Nothing
Dolly Parton
Intro: We’re holding on with nothing left to hold on to I’m so tired of holding on to nothing The years have shown no kindness For the hard times we’ve been through We’ve squeezed the life from every dream And still go right on bluffing With really nothing left to hold on to Oh why do we keep holding on With nothing left to hold on to Let’s be honest with each other That’s the least that we can do I feel guilty when they envy me and you We’re holding on with nothing left to hold on to We were young and foolishly mistaken Victims of a passion much too strong to be denied With only tears to show for all the years that we’ve been faking God only knows how long how hard we’ve tried Repeat #2 We’re holding on with nothing left to hold on to
