Holding On To What I Can't Hold - Nashville Cast, Mark Collie

It was so easy when I was younger

It didn’t take much to feed the hunger

Somewhere along you lose the innocence

No idea where it mighta went

Spend your whole life looking for something

I’m holding on

I’m holding on

In my life is just the way it goes

Holding on

Holding on

It’s hard to admit when you can’t control

Holding on to what I can’t hold

You had a reason for packing and leaving

I’ve got a reason for wanting and reaching

I’m not as big as I thought I was

Didn’t go down the way I thought it would

I don’t even know what it is I’m needing

I’m holding on

I’m holding on

In my life is just the way it goes

I’m holding on

Holding on

It’s hard to admit when you can’t control

Holding' on to what I can’t hold

You find it and you drink it

And you hold it and you smoke it

Spend your whole life looking for something

I’m holding on

I’m holding on

In my life that’s just the way it goes

Holding on

Holding on

Hard to admit when you can’t control

Holding on to what I can’t hold
