Holding Out
Something else is bound to break before I do
If someones gonna take me out
Ill never let them hear a sound
Cos something else is bound to give
before Im through
If Im about to take a fall,
someone else is already gone
But I say hey,
throw me down a line Im out of luck
Youre holding out on me wont you help me up
Hoping that youll be,
holding out for me
I say hey,
throw me down a line Im out of luck
Youre holding out on me wont you help me up
Hoping that youll be,
holding out for me
Heeeeey...Heeey...

Minute By Minute
Michael mcdonald/lester abrams
Hey, dont worry, Ive been lied to
Ive been here many times before
Girl, dont you worry, I know where I stand
I dont need this love, I dont need your hand
I know I could turn, blink, and youd be gone
Then I must be prepared any time to carry on
But minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
You will stay just to watch me, darlin
Wilt away on lies from you
Cant stop the habit of livin on the run
I take it all for granted like youre the only one
Livin on my own
Somehow that sounds nice
You think Im your fool
Well, you may just be right
cause minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Call my name and Ill be gone
Youll reach out and I wont be there
Just my luck youll realize
You should spend your life with someone
You could spend your life with someone
Minute by minute by minute by minute
Ill be holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
Ill be holding on...

Any Day Now
Any day now
I will hear you say
Goodbye my love
Youll be on your way
In the wild, beautiful bird
You will have flown, yeah
Any day now, Ill be all alone
(and you wont be around)
Any day now
When your restless eyes
Meet someone new
Too my sad surprise
And the blue shadows will fall
All over town, yeah
Any day now
You wont be around
(and love will let me down)
I shouldnt want to keep
If you dont want to stay
Until youre gone forever
Ill be holding out
For dear life, holding out
Holding you this way
(and begging you to stay)
Any day now
When the clock strikes go
Youll go away
Then my tears will fall
And the blue shadows will fall
All over town, yeah
Any day now
You wont be around
(and love will let me down)

Holding Out
Theres nothing outside my window
But the sound of the pouring rain
It oughta be breaking my heart
But I feel no pain
Trying to pick up the station
Thatll carry me through this night
Got a fire to keep me warm
til I got you in my arms
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out
Girl, Ive been dreaming about you
For the better part of my life
At least I can make it without you
One more night
Im not afraid of the thunder
I wont run away from the storm
Let the stars fall down and break
I dont care how long it takes
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out
Theres no other love in the world
I could want any more
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out

Holding Me Tonight
(carly simon)
You say youre not worthy of me
But how do you know when you cant see
Your eyes where midnight catches fire
I cant describe this dizzy desire
Can you be so insecure
That you dont know what this grin is for
Do you think I always act this way
Silly and silent, and eager to stay
When youre holding me tonight
Holding me tonight
You think its all a mistake
That Im lost in a dream from which Ill wake up
There youll be just another guy
You could never be but I dare you to try
When youre holding me
Holding me tonight
I walk into your room
You blush when I see it in a mess
So I undress and close my eyes
A room with a view
Is in the dark with you
But that should come as no suprise
Its not a matter of mind
The choice of the heart is a different kind
Its always been a mystery
When you walk into the room it happens to me
And when youre holding me
Holding me tonight

Whats She Like
Whats she like when she turns around to kiss you goodnight? /
When she wakes up in the morning by your side? / whats she like?
Whats she like? / the yellow moon or the deep blue of the sea? /
Do you feel the same way you did when it was me? / whats she like?
Oh Ive been holding on / Ive been holding on for far too long /
Ive been holding on / Ive been holding on much too long.
Whats she like when youre making love and stars are in her eyes? /
When youre looking for the answers in her smile? / whats she like?
Oh Ive been holding on / Ive been holding on for far too long /
Ive been holding on / Ive been holding on much too long / too long.
I never knew I could love somebody the way I loved you /
I never thought Id be the broken-hearted /
Well, nothing hurts you like the truth.
So whats she like when she turns to you, when push comes to shove? /
When she whispers in your ear that shes in love? / whats she like?
Oh Ive been holding on / Ive been holding on for far too long /
Ive been holding on / Ive been holding on much too long /
So whats she like?

Hoping Youre Making It Too - So Low B-side
Dont let my feet get off the ground
Today Im glad to be standing here
But all the time I spent tunnelling down
To some place where Im not so clear
Ive been holding out for this time
Standing straight in my own line
Was hoping youre making it too
All the hours we were learning to fly
Were chasing night-lights round the room
I can never repay when I learnt from you
I know youre seeing it your own way too
Your head just went for another walk
But its coming home and it hangs in the hall
Your head in your hand as youre suffering
But you I know what state youre in
Fall on my knees and my hair rolls around
But even on my knees I know I can stand
If its coming home its coming for you
I can see me standing with dunston and you
Ive been holding out for my neighbour
Standing straight for my brother
Was hoping youre making it too

But shes holding his heart
And she wont let go again

Just cruising around in her own sweet way
But shes taking her time
And hes gonna get fooled again
She learned about life
Til she wished shew were dead
So she treats that guy like a hole in the head
Can you see him now
Hell never get lucky again

She never slows down
And she cant get enough

Shes holding her heart to the stars above

She looks just great and she never slows down
And shes holding his heart and she wont let go again

Holding Back The Years
Holding back the years,
Thinking of the fear Ive had for so long.
When somebody hears,
Listen to the fear thats gone.
Strangled by the wishes of pater,
Hoping for the arm of mater,
Get to me sooner or later,
Nothing ever could, yeah.
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on.
Chance for me to escape from all I know.
Holding back the tears.
Theres nothing here has grown.
Ive wasted all my tears,
Wasted all those years.
Nothing had the chance to be good,
Nothing ever could, yeah.
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on
So tight.

No Mercy
No mercy
In the midnight hush, the restless hours between dark and light
In dreams we come together underneath the cover of the night
Youre holding out, but Im holding on
Cant wait until your resistance is gone
No mercy, accept no defeat
No mercy, til youre here with me
Now the pressures on
You can run away but you cant hide
You might as well surrender, the walls are closing in on every side
Im getting closer, now, theres no escape
Victory is written all over my face
No mercy, I wont give in no!
No mercy, til you let me in
I wont take no for an answer
I wont let go
No mercy, until you let me in
No mercy, no, Ill never give in
No mercy, I wont let you go no!
No mercy, and I want you to know, oh
No mercy

Desperate Heart
One night, one empty room, one man gettin over you
One star, one lonely moon, I make a wish, I know will never come true
You call my name, and you beg me to hold you again
But the truth remains, Im only a fool who cant help but pretend
Chorus:
Its all over but Im holding on, I cant let go until the love is gone
Its all over but I keep holding on with a desperate heart
With my desperate heart
Some nights, I try in my mind, I see myself learning someone new
Still I know, Im wasting my time, no one can take the place of you
So I close my eyes, I swear I feel you here by my side
But its all only a lie, I need to believe for my heart to survive
Its all over but Im holding on, I cant let go until the love is gone
Its all over but I keep holding on with a desperate heart
With my desperate heart, I keep holding on
(guitar solo)
All this time Ive been drowning in hopeless illusions Im keeping inside
That someday youll walk out of the shadows and back into my life
Its all over but Im holding on, I cant believe your love for me is gone
Its all over but I keep holding on (with a desperate heart)
Yeah with my desperate heart, I cant let go until the love is gone
(all over but Im holding on) I keep holding on
(all over but Im holding on) I cant believe your love for me is gone
(all over but I keep holding on)
(all over but Im holding on)

Better Your Heart Than Mine
(written by lisa angelle, andrew gold)
Dont come crying to me
It wasnt long ago that you couldnt see
The pain you put me in when you walked out
Dont bring me your rainy day
Theres just so much a girl can take
And all the tears in the world wont help you now
I cant tell you its alright
I wont be holding you tonight
You want the love you threw away
All youre gonna get is a whole lot of pain
Better your heart than mine
Better luck to you the next time
You broke my heart in two
Now its coming back on you
Its your turn to cry
Better your heart than mine
You come waltzing through my door
Like I aint been here with you before
Dont tell me that new love done put you down
Dont you tell me its alright
You wont be holding me tonight
You want the love you threw away
All youre gonna get is a whole lot of pain
Better your heart than mine
Better luck to you the next time
You broke my heart in two
Now its coming back on you
Its your turn to cry
Better your heart than mine

Miracle
I wake up,
and start my everyday routine
of working hard at feeling sorry for myself.
and after lunch i close my eyes,
and wish to god that i could change
but when i wake up im still very much myself
and im a long way from believing
that im gonna be ok
such a long way from believing
that ill escape
this feeling that i hate
and its miracle that we are here today
with all the pain we put ourselves through over nothing
cuz if you think hard
youll know soon it will be ok
and youll be holding on to someone
holding on to someone
i wake up
and start my everyday routine
of wondering what in the world im gonna do
cuz things are falling into place
but i can't appreciate them
'cuz if last time fell apart then this might too
and im a long way from believing
that im gonna be ok
such a long way from believing
that ill escape
this feeling that i hate
and its miracle that we are here today
with all the pain we put ourselves through over nothing
cuz if you think hard
youll know soon it will be ok
and youll be holding on to someone
holding on to someone
Dimly lit my porch lights
I can see your eyes
and they are staring into my face
staring into my face
i should trust what i see in them
and know the time is right
but still ill take the easy road and wait
ive got to stop being scared
and using time that isn't there
'cause i could die tomorrow or today
control is resting on my side
but knowing just would not be right
and thats not how i wanna live my life
and its miracle that we are here today
with all the pain we put ourselves through over nothing
cuz if you think hard
youll know soon it will be ok
and youll be holding on to someone
holding on to someone
and its miracle that we are here today
with all the pain we put ourselves through over nothing
cuz if you think hard
youll know soon it will be ok
and youll be holding on to someone

Light Up & Let Go
The way youre holding me
Im gonna blow up in your face
You know the way
Youre gonna light up and let go
You better let go, let go
You better let go
You wanted flames
But now your tears wont put out the blaze
Before you run away
Know that I cannot let go
You better let go, let go
You better let go
You stood a watched me behind [? ]
Remember close you eyes [? ]
Remember life is a lie [? ]
You let me cold and blind [? ]

Im gonna blow up in your face
You know the way
Youre gonna light up and let go
You better let go, and go

Shadows Of Grief
Youre looking at me
Like I must be mad
But Ive been through all this before
Youll kick and kick until Im down
So dont think youre
Comin past my door, oh no
You think that love is such a pain
So the more it hurts
The more you laugh
Just take it and
Shake it up and down
Till you think youve had enough
But you wont get enough of my love
If you want to carry on
In the same old way
Treating everyone like a piece of dirt
Just take it and
Break it and throw it away
There wont be anyone left to hurt
North, south, east and west
Wherever you go
Youll find the same
And the only way youll ever learn
Is to realize that youre to blame

Bad Loser
Written by christine mcvie.
Well you thought you had a hold on me
But its different now
Everything you done before has fell upon you now
Are you just a bad loser
But you never let go
(and youre gonna go down)
Yes youll go down, but youll never let it show
All the strings and strokes in the ocean
Wont buy you peice of mind
All because you did what you did
Youre not the peaceful kind
Youre just a bad loser
And youll never let go
(and youre gonna go down)
Yes youll go down, but youll never, never let it show
I think you really know what I mean
But Ill tell you one more time
Oh cause its the truth and you know it
That youre no friend of mine
Youre just a bad loser
And youll never let go
(and youre gonna go down)
Yes youll go down, but youll never let it show

Im Gonna Be Strong
I can see
Youre slipping away from me
And youre so afraid
That Ill plead with you to stay
But Im gonna be strong
And let you go your way
Love is gone
Theres no sense in holding on
And your pity now
Would be more than I could bare
But Im gonna be strong
And pretend I dont care
Im gonna be strong
And stand as tall as I can
Im gonna be strong
And let you go along
And take it like a man
When you say its the end
Ill hand you a line
Ill smile and say
Dont you worry Im fine
But youll never know darling
After you kiss me goodbye
How Ill break down and cry.

Just Dont Tell Me That
Oh oh, no no, all right
You got to be seen at every party
At the playboy mansion
But, sad
I know I gotta draw the line
You wanna be in
The flashes of light
Holding me tight
With your phoney laugh
I guess
You gotta be photographed
You can say its real
But I know where its at
Just dont tell me that
You are gonna love me
I dont wanna hear it baby
Tell me that
Its gonna be your last lie
No baby I wont go for that
Even if you did say
You were gonna be there
I dont want you back
cause its not about love
Just dont tell me that
You like to drive in my car
Spend every dollar of my credit
Baby, guess what
Saw me with your golden eye
Guess you wanna be
Part of the ride
Live for the night
But Ive seen it through
Had enough of being close to you
You can say its real
But I know where its at
Just dont tell me that
You are gonna love me
I dont wanna hear it baby
Tell me that
Its gonna be your last lie
No baby I wont go for that
Even if you did say
You were gonna be there
I dont want you back
cause its not about love
Just dont tell me that
No no, its not about love
No no
You wanna be in

Holding me tight
Girl its all up to you
But whatever you do
I dont wanna hear it
Youre not gonna love me
I wont go for that
It just wont last
Even if you did say
You were gonna be there
I dont want you back
cause its not about love
Just dont tell me that
You are gonna love me
I dont wanna hear it baby

Hard Luck Stories
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine.
Every time youre feelin fine
Got another good one on the line
It slips away,
You feel it slip away, slip away.
I dont want no more from you
Wont do what you want me to
Turn me loose
Come on turn me loose, turn me loose.
Every time Im feelin good
The phone rings and I knock on wood
Hoping that it wont be you
Calling like you always do.
All you ever seem to say is
How much bad luck came your way
You wont try to start again
You just count on your old friends.
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine.
Now you call up every day
Got no money no place to stay
That girl made a mess of you
You got what was comin too.
Build her up and let her down
Tastin everythin in town
Treat her right, you never
Treat her right, treat her right.
Now shes gone and youre alone
Bite your fingers to the bone
Slip away,
You feel it slip away, slip away.
You dont know whats goin on
How you lost it, what went wrong
What ever happened to
The love that you once knew.
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine.

Get Out
(olivia newton-john/randy goodrum)
Someones in the kitchen
Trying to cook me up some trouble
Someones in the kitchen
Trying to stir me up inside
Hes been itching to try and burst my bubble
All this friction is killing my appetite
Get out--if you cant take it
Get out--if you cant take the heat
Throw your dirty looks out with the garbage
Humble pie is one thing I wont eat
Just because youre laid off at the office
Just because its now all up to me
Youre forgetting all the things you promised
Its the age of equal opportunity
Get out--if you cant take it
Get out--if you cant take the heat
Throw your dirty looks out with the garbage
Humble pie is one thing I wont eat
Oh--the kids are fine
We should use this time
To make some plans
Oh--i know it hurts
With our roles reversed
But darling youll be a better man
Yes I know its hard to do the laundry
Yes I know its hard to mind the kids
It doesnt matter who does what, were family
Im just working to keep us off the skids
Get out--if you cant take it
Get out--if you cant take the heat
Throw your dirty looks out with the garbage
Humble pie is one thing I wont eat
Get out--if you cant take it
Get out--if you cant take the heat
Throw your dirty looks out with the garbage
Humble pie is one thing I wont eat
Humble pie is one thing I wont eat
Humble pie is one thing I wont eat... no
