Holding On To Heaven Lyrics

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
I’ll hold on and hold on

I keep listening to my chest
For a beat but there’s nothing left
It’s been a week since I’ve seen you
And I still can’t believe it
Cause I’m dying inside alone
And everyday we gotta be apart
I’m like a baby with a broken heart
But the second that I see you
You will know how much I need you
Cause I’ll never be letting you go
Now you know

I’m lost without you
And there’s nothing I can do
You know I can't go without
If i ain’t holding onto you
Then I’ll be holding out forever
I’ve got you now and
I’m not letting go of you
Never been together long enough
Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
I’ll hold on and hold on

And if I can write a symphony
Baby you would be my melody
And you would flow like a river
Slowly going on forever
Like a feather that’s blowing away
Like every woman needs a fairytale
Like every mother’s love that never fails
Like every game that needs a player
And a sinner needs a savior
I’m appealing you with the saint
Now you know

I’m lost without you
And there’s nothing I can do
You know I can't go without
If I aint holding on to you
Then I’ll be holding on forever
I’ve got you now and
I’m not letting go of you
Never been together long enough
Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

And I’m willing to wait
Just to see another day
What I’m waiting for
Will wash this pain away
And it’s never too late

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
I’ll hold on and hold on
Now you know

I’m lost without you
And there’s nothing I can do
You know I can't go without
If I aint holding on to you
Then I’ll be holding on forever
I’ve got you now and
I’m not letting go of you
Never been together long enough
Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
And if forever never comes then I
Cause every moment I’m with you
It’s like I’m holding on to heaven

What an amazing & beautiful song! Can't believe noone has commented yet. To me, this is the most profound song on the new album.

My take on it - it's either about getting back together with that special girl after a recent/short breakup, or it could possibly be about a new and budding relationship - with someone incredible!

This is a great song....I can't believe that it doesn't have more comments. I see this song as someone that you can't be without. When you are away from this person for any length of time you start to miss them and as soon as you see them you get a big smile on your face and you forget about your worries.

I dedicated this song to my son, I only have him 2 days a fortnight... Not sure if that's what chad meant by it but it's fit for me ;)
