Lyrics
There was nothing I could say to keep you
Expressing powerlessness in preventing someone from leaving.
There was nothing left that I could do
Conveying a sense of helplessness with no options left.
But I can't let go
Despite the situation, unable to release emotional attachment.
And it burns me but no
Feeling emotional pain, but continuing to endure it.
I just keep holding on
Persisting in holding onto what is present.
To what I got 'til it's gone
Recognizing the value of something only after losing it.
If I hold you this close
Questioning the significance of physical closeness and verbal assurances.
It don't mean anything
-If I tell you I can't lose you
-It still don't mean anything
-There was nothing I could say to keep you
Repetition of the sense of powerlessness and the struggle to let go.
There was nothing left that I could do
-But I can't let go
-And it burns me but no
-I just keep holding on
-To what I got 'til it's gone
-If I hold you this close
Reiterating the potential emptiness of physical closeness and verbal assurances.
It don't mean anything
-If I tell you I can't lose you
-It still don't mean anything
-And I just keep holding on
Emphasizing the continuous effort to hold on despite the inevitable loss.
To what I got 'til it's gone
-I just keep holding on
-To what I got 'til it's gone
-I just keep holding on
-To what I got 'til it's gone
-I just keep holding on
-To what I got 'til it's gone
-I just keep holding on
-To what I got 'til it's gone
-I just keep holding on
-To what I got 'til it's gone
-So I wait up 'til it's dawn
Waiting for a new beginning, symbolized by dawn.
I see the red in the horizon
Observing the challenges (red in the horizon) that mark a new day.
Sometimes the colors run
Acknowledging that sometimes experiences fade or change.
I still see some of 'em
Reflecting on the dynamic nature of emotions and experiences.
Sometimes the colors run
-I use all of 'em
-Sometimes the colors run
Seeing and accepting the diversity and complexity of life's experiences.
I could see all of 'em
