The Heart Holds On

You and I were lovers

For me it was a first

I didn't know how dry I was

Until you satisfied my thirst

We grew up together

Then we grew apart

But through the years

Beyond the tears

The heart holds on

Long after goodbye

The heart holds on

It don't need a reason why

When two souls truly touch

And dare to feel this much

It's never gone

The heart holds on

I hide it when I see you

I'm steady as a rock

But there's a part of me

That dreams of turning back the clock

But I don't make a habit

Of living in the past

My mind says no

I must let go

But the heart holds on

Long after goodbye

The heart holds on

It don't need a reason why

When two souls truly touch

And dare to feel this much

It's never gone

The heart holds on

I might not talk about you

Or ever mention your name

But wrong or right

You're apart of my life

And that ain't going to change

'Cause the heart holds on

Long after goodbye

The heart holds on

It don't need a reason why

When two souls truly touch

And dare to feel this much

It's never gone

The heart holds on
