I have lived my life my way

For tonight and for today

It's the strongest hearts they say

That always survive

I'm fallin through the years

As each dream it disappears

When the night is full of tears

I'll be holdin on

Now this life is instant black

But I won't be lookin back

The rain washed out the tracks

I'll never find again

I'm still reachin for the light

I'm still wearin out the night

And you know I'll be alright

I'll be holdin on

When I stand alone

I don't stand on memories

Of all the ones you've known

I'll be holdin on

I know how it is

I know how it will be

(When) All the rest are gone

I'll be holdin on

Well my life is made of sand

It flows right through my hand

Each day I make a stand

And I'll see it through

I'm still reachin for the light

I'm still wearin out the night

And you know I'll be alright

I'll be holdin on

When I stand alone

I don't stand on memories

Of all the ones you've known

I'll be holdin on

I know how it is

I know how it will be

(When) All the rest are gone

I'll be holdin on

When I stand alone

I don't stand on memories

Of all the ones you've known

I'll be holdin on

I know how it is

I know how it will be

(When) All the rest are gone

I'll be holdin on . . . .
