verse 1: I dont need whiskey to drown out the pain Or some old umbrella to hold off the rain Dont have to cross over a river of tears All that I need is right here Holding you holds me together When holding on gets just a little to hard When this tight rope I travel Begins to unravel and I feel like I'm falling apart Holding you holds me together verse 2: You know life's a freight liner on a runaway track But I'll take the ride knowing that you'll bring me back No fates too uncertain no distance to far As long as your here in my arms Holding you holds me together When holding on gets just a little to hard When this tight rope I travel Begins to unravel and I feel like I'm falling apart Holding you holds me together When ever I hold you tight This crazy world of mine falls right in place Whatever the trouble is You find a way to give back what it takes, Yeahhhh LET IT RIDE A MEASURE: When this tight rope I travel Begins to unravel and I feel like I'm falling apart Holding you holds me together Holding you holds me together
