LYRICS // HOLDING ON

I keep holding on
To your cards and poems and letters
I keep holding on

You were a man, who walked alone in the snow
Strange snowshoe tracks had found their way to my home
A lifetime you had planned
One letter and a love poem told me so
Stuffed in the doorjamb
'kept telling me: "don't wanna keep holding on"

The warmth of the skylight
The calm of the afternoon
It all completely keeps me
I'll keep holding on

You saw me in the spotlight section of a newspaper magazine
But I wasn't what you expected at all
Keep on reaching, keep on searching
I'll keep holding on

I admired his persistance
To my fellow log cabin-dweller in the woods
It was a short-lived correspondence

The twilight, the shimmering crescent moon
It all completely keeps me
I'll keep holding on
