Holdin' Onto Something

There's a little girl, I wanna make her mine

What she wants, I don't know

If red means stop, green means go

Her light is always yellow

I'm wrapped around her finger

She's slippin' through my hands

Every time I think I got her

I gotta think again

I'm holdin' on to somethin'

That keeps lettin' me go

Just a whole lotta heartache

At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reachin', I can't stop

Holdin' on to somethin' that keeps lettin' me go

She calls me on the phone, says she's all alone

Feelin' kinda lonely

Says she can't wait, so don't be late

I promise her I won't be

Ten minutes later, I'm standin' at her door

She's sayin' "Never mind, I ain't lonely anymore"

I'm holdin' on to somethin'

That keeps lettin' me go

Just a whole lotta heartache

At the end of my rope

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reachin', 'cause I can't stop

Holdin' on to somethin' that keeps lettin' me go

I fall a little harder every time I drop

But I keep reachin', I just can't stop

I'm holdin' on to somethin' that keeps lettin' me go

(Holdin' on to somethin' that keeps lettin' me go)

I'm holdin' on to somethin' that keeps lettin' me go

(Holdin' on to somethin' that keeps lettin' me go)
