Jeff Carson - Holdin' Onto Something

There's a little girl, wanna make her mine
What she wants, I don't know
If red means stop and green means go
Her light is always yellow
I'm wrapped around her finger, she's slipping through my hands
Every time I think I got her, I gotta think again.

I'm holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go
Just a whole lot of heartache
At the end of my rope
I fall a little harder every time I drop
But I keep reachin', I can't stop
Holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go.

She calls me on the phone, says she's all alone
Feelin' kind of lonely
Says she can't wait so don't be late
I promise her I wont be
Ten minutes later i'm standin' at her door
She's sayin': "Never mind, I ain't lonely anymore."

I'm holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go
Just a whole lot of heartache
At the end of my rope
I fall a little harder every time I drop
But I keep reachin', 'cause I can't stop
Holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go.

--- Instrumental ---

I fall a little harder every time I drop
But I keep reachin', an' I just can't stop
I'm holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go.
(Holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go.)

I'm holdin' on to somethin'
That keeps lettin' me go.
(Holdin' on to somethin',
That keeps lettin' me go...)
