Bearstronaut – Holding Out lyrics

I keep holding out for you
And I keep holding out for you

Settle up my debts
And dial your number
Tell me where you slept
Better not have been with another

Spent the last of my coin on a letter to you
Wrote it in cursive like I knew what to do
How many ways can I say I'm sorry?
I'm trying to get us to the next party

What'd you expect
From these bastard bones?
Called you collect
For reasons God only knows

I keep holding out for you (Keep holding)
I keep holding out for you (Keep holding)
I know you get the feeling like you're in it alone
But there's only certain things you really need to know
Like I keep holding out for you (Keep holding)

Woke up in a sweat
From the weight of their eyes
Always knew this would end
I had to leave you behind

Took me away, then they loosened my jaw
Gave it all up, now I'm taking the fall
This handsome villain is forever yours
Between the bars when I knew you needed more

What'd you expect?
It's the same story
I won't be the one
Who leaves you lonely

I keep holding out for you (Keep holding)
I keep holding out for you (Keep holding)
I keep holding out for you
I'm never gonna be the one
Be the one who leaves you lonely
I keep holding out for you
I'm never gonna be the one
So be the one who leaves me lonely
