But I've been waiting too long
I believed in your promises
And it hurts to see I was wrong
The one more tries, the sleepless nights
The countless tears that I've cried
Chorus:
Lt Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone
Stairways leading down to nowhere
Roads that never end
Why keep on going 'round in circles
To break my heart again
Caressed my hair, then left me there
Alone but you don't care
Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone
I used to think that I should blame myself
But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else
Now here's a me, you've never seen before
As you're watching me walk right out the door
Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone
They say patience is a virtue But I've been waiting too long I believed in your promises And it hurts to see I was wrong The one more tries, the sleepless nights The countless tears that I've cried Chorus: Lt Why should I keep holding on When I know someone new is holding you Why should I keep holding on I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone Stairways leading down to nowhere Roads that never end Why keep on going 'round in circles To break my heart again Caressed my hair, then left me there Alone but you don't care Why should I keep holding on When I know someone new is holding you Why should I keep holding on I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone I used to think that I should blame myself But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else Now here's a me, you've never seen before As you're watching me walk right out the door Why should I keep holding on When I know someone new is holding you Why should I keep holding on I gotta let go, 'cause love's already gone Explain Request ×
