Holding Out Lyrics
I was warmed
By your humble outlook on the world
Around you and all you are
I was floored by the way you take me seriously
Even when Im joking
Damn damn damn damn
Im not tired and Im tired
Im not calling out
Cross the street I was holding out
Holding out cross the table
I was holding out
Trying to find a lover like that holding out
Like the wind I was holding out
Staying still hoping no one else would see me
Hoping calm replacing silent trying tongues
Do I need a reason to hold you now
Cause I’d hold you now
Yeah I would hold you now
One night and all I need is one more day
Holding out something that feels okay
And the right thing to do is wait
Holding out
Holding out
Holding out for you
I am strange, believed in fairy tales at a young age
Circumstance now I kick my self in the pants
Down the street talk to you, tires screech
Isn’t it strange I had a chance now were holding out
Hoping that the last string won’t break
I’m nodding out
With a smile stuck on my face
And then you came to me in a far away way
And I’m bring you something I want you to have
It’s the biggest part of my heart that I still got
Hoping arms
Know I’ll be holding out
I’ll be holding out
Holding out
I’ll be holding out
Holding out
Holding out
Holding out
For you
By your humble outlook on the world
Around you and all you are
I was floored by the way you take me seriously
Even when Im joking
Im not tired and Im tired
Im not calling out
Cross the street I was holding out
Holding out cross the table
I was holding out
Trying to find a lover like that holding out
Like the wind I was holding out
Staying still hoping no one else would see me
Hoping calm replacing silent trying tongues
Do I need a reason to hold you now
Cause I’d hold you now
Yeah I would hold you now
One night and all I need is one more day
Holding out something that feels okay
Holding out
Holding out
Holding out for you
I am strange, believed in fairy tales at a young age
Circumstance now I kick my self in the pants
Down the street talk to you, tires screech
Isn’t it strange I had a chance now were holding out
Hoping that the last string won’t break
I’m nodding out
With a smile stuck on my face
And then you came to me in a far away way
And I’m bring you something I want you to have
It’s the biggest part of my heart that I still got
Hoping arms
Know I’ll be holding out
I’ll be holding out
Holding out
I’ll be holding out
Holding out
Holding out
Holding out
For you

Just a couple of corrections straight from the album insert:
I was floored by your humble outlook on the world around you, who and all you are. I was floored by the way you take me seriously, even when I'm joking.
Damn, damn, damn, damn.
I'm not tired and I'm tired of not calling out on the street I was holding out Holding out, 'cross the table I was holding out, trying to find a lover like that. Holding out, like the wind I was holding out, staying still, hoping no one else would see me. Hoping calm, replacing silence, drying palms. Do I need a reason to hold you now? 'Cause I'd hold you now, yeah I'd hold you now. One more night, all I need is one more day. Holding out, for something that feels okay, and the right thing to do is wait.
Holding out, holding out, holding out for you.
I am strange, reading fairy tales at a young age. Circumstance, now I kick myself in the pants. And then you came to me in a faraway way, and I'm bringing you something I want you to have, it's the biggest part of my heart that I still got.
Hoping arms... no... I'll be holding out.
I'll be holding out, holding out. I'll be holding out, holding out. Holding out, holding out for you.
