Holdin' On
Finding Light in Love's Darkness
Lyrics
A man tries to find his part
A man is searching for his role
A place in this world
Seeking a place in the world
Somewhere not too far from you
Desiring a location not too distant from someone
You know that it's true
Affirming the truth of the previous statement
I needed to find my own little way
Expressing the need to discover a unique path
My own little way
Emphasizing the individual journey
Something kinda like
Comparing the experience to a dream come true
A dream come true
Highlighting the positive nature of the dream
But when I fell in love
Reflecting on losing control of the heart upon falling in love
I lost control of my own heart
Reiterating the loss of control in love
When I fell in love
Stating the act of falling in love
I fell in love
Repeating the experience of falling in love
An empty feeling
Describing a sense of emptiness
I picture your picture's so far away
Imagining a distant image of someone
More than just to yesterday
Referencing a time beyond just yesterday
You know that you got that hold on me
Acknowledging the powerful influence someone has
The stars light
Highlighting the enduring presence of stars
Has never left me in darkness
Emphasizing the lack of darkness due to stars
That thought was kinda like
Comparing a thought to a dream come true
A dream come true
Reflecting on the loss of control in love
But when I fell in love
Expressing the impact of turning away in love
I lost control of my own heart
Describing a sense of falling apart
And when you turned away
Noting the emotional difficulty when the sun sets
I totally fell apart
Having only stars during a dark time
And when the sun went down
Continuing to hold on despite challenges
All I had were those stars
Reaffirming the commitment to hold on
But I keep holdin' on
Repeated emphasis on holding on despite adversity
I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
-I'm holdin' on
