Holding On (When Love Is Gone)

holding on is very hard to do
When love is gone and that's no lie
holding on is very hard to do
When love is gone, hey, hey, hey, yeah

I bet you, you're unhappy
I know you gotta be (I know you gotta be)
'Cause it can drive you out your mind
There ain't no sense in cryin'
It's time for you to leave (it's time for you to leave)
Baby, that's the bottom line
(Oh, I) I bet you lie awake at night and never rest a bit
And wish it all would disappear (yeah)
But still the bottom line is you got to deal with it
And to yourself at least be fair

Said, holding on is very hard to do
When love is gone and that's no lie
holding on is very hard to do
When love is gone, hey, hey, hey, yeah

Ha, ha, ha

Doo, doo, doo, doo-doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo-doo
Ha, ha, ha

Doo, doo, doo, doo-doo
Ha, ha, ha
Who are you kiddin'?

Listen to me now

When you know when the feeling's gone
Well, you got to stop holdin' on
'Cause that makes it twice as bad
You can't give the love that you don't have
So why drag it on and on and on?

Holding on and on and on, yeah
(When love is gone) Yeah, yeah
Said that I'm holding on
Is so very hard to do when your love is gone
When your love is gone now
Holding on, so very hard to do when your love is gone
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
