I look around and I wonder How much pain does it take To admit to a failure I`ve made a mistake
I talk like I hate you I just need to be free I don`t mean to hurt you but It`s time to think about me
You say that you love me You`re making me cry
You say that you need me But I`m not about to lie
Holding on to you Is as mad as it seems Holding on to you Is the end of my dreams Didn`t know time could move so fast You and I were living in the past Holding on to you Is as mad as it seems Holding on to you Is the end of our dreams Didn`t know time could move so fast Before you know we`re living in the past
Holding on to you is letting go of me
Was I ever so foolish I tried so hard to believe That you were the answer But I was deceived
I talk like I hate you But it just ain`t the truth While love lies sleeping I`m gonna make my move
You say that you love me You`re making me cry
You say that you need me But I`m not about to lie
Holding on to you Is as mad as it seems Holding on to you Is the end of my dreams Didn`t know time could move so fast You and I were living in the past Holding on to you Is as mad as it seems Holding on to you Is the end of our dreams Didn`t know time could move so fast Before you know we`re living in the past
Cos holding on to you is letting go of me
It`s time to step to the future baby
Don`t look back you know it ain`t easy When it`s time for change To make new arrangements baby Don`t look back You know I can`t lie
There goes my dream You and I were living in the past
Holding on to you Is as mad as it seems Holding on to you Is the end of my dreams Didn`t know time could move so fast Before you know it we`re living in the past
`Cos holding on to you is letting go of me And I can`t let go of me And I won`t let go of me It`s time to step to the future I can do that baby
Make new arrangements baby Make new arrangements baby
