[Verse 1]
I've tasted sour and I've tasted sweet
Seen bitter days draw a tear, I've been swept off my feet
Seems I've been here many times before
Every time I reached out I couldn't unlock the door

[Chorus]
I'm holding on to things that used to be
Holding on to things that again will never be
And I'm always gonna hold on to you

[Verse 2]
I've seen some good times, I've seen some bad
Been caught in situations that left me oh, so sad

[Chorus]
I'm holding on to things that used to be
Holding on to things that again would never be
And I'm always gonna hold on to you

[Flute and Guitar Solos]

[Verse 3]
I used to live my life in late night dreams
Reality was hidden by the dark
It was an easy life it seemed
[Chorus]
I'm holding on to things that used to be
Holding on to things that again will never be
And I'm always gonna hold on to you
