Holding Out Lyrics

Holding out for a better wayHolding out that's the way I've played itAnd playing is no fun when you've got to play aloneOh love, holding out, holding outGather round the flying ladyFeather down to nothing better thanWeathering a storm off the ground and off the boneAnd holding on, holding on, holding onTelephone, please don't ring for nothingCall me home to a dream that lasts till morningI never sleep alone without a light onCome and turn it downSo love, hold me downOh love, it don't come easyIt brings you down to a bed of roots and reasonsBut I don't do well aloneOff the ground and off the bone andHolding on so love, hold me down,Hold me down, hold me downWell it isn't easyBreathing hold me down, no, noDo you think it's easySinging hold me downAnd it's isn't easyLiving, hold me down, hold me down,Hold me down, hold me downIt's never easy
