Well, I'm holdin' on to memories the way some people do
If I have my heart to believe in then I know that I'll get through
If I could just let it go, I think I'd find that it would be good
But I'm holding on to memories 'cause I think I should
There was a time when we knew what was right
But it slipped through our fingers and shifted in the night
I've seen through all the faces
Through every heart, through every ghost
And it's hard to let go of the ones you love the most
Well, you're holdin' on to memories the way some people do
If you have your heart to believe in
Then you know that you'll get through
If you could just let it go, I think you'd find that it would be good
But you're holdin' on to memories 'cause you think you should
Well, we're holding on to memories the way some people do
If we have our hearts to believe in then I know that we'll get through
