Look behind these eyes, honey, what do you see? I'm not sure that I know And if it's the man that you imagined was me Make sure that he knows there's no holding on

 

I told you some secrets and I told you some lies Just 'cause you were near And if you didn't love me with those deep brown eyes I might not still be here; there's no holding on

 

And if you had to leave me honey I wouldn't care I put no faith in dreams And someday you might walk away and leave me somewhere 'Cause that's what freedom means: there's no holding on

 

Hold onto your memories But don't hold onto love Love's got a knack of disappearing Leaving you the lonely one Leaving you still holding on

 

Five little knuckles holding one little hand Just to keep it warm So don't start thinking that I'm that kind of man 'Cause habits will get born; there's no holding on

 

Hold onto your memories But don't hold onto love Love's got a knack of disappearing Leaving you the lonely one Leaving you still holding on

 

And if you had to leave me honey I wouldn't care I put no faith in dreams And someday you might walk away and leave me somewhere 'Cause that's what freedom means: there's no holding on There's no holding on....
