From the recording Still Holding On
Written by Jonathon Brannon
Lyrics
We built a life on midnight calls
Little truths and little falls
I never meant to let you down
But I see it now
You said love was more than words
But I spoke less, and you got hurt
I wish I’d listened like I should
If I could go back, I would
I see the ghost of us in everything
And every quiet night still pulls that string
I’m still holding on
To what we had before it was gone
You're still the light in my darkest days
No matter how far you are away
I’d still choose you every time
You were always the best part of my life
You’re not really gone
I’m still holding on
You moved on, I stayed the same
Still checking pictures, saying your name
I tell my friends I’m doing fine
But they know it’s a lie
And maybe I was just too proud
But pride don't mean much now
‘Cause the one thing that I need
Is the one thing I can’t reach
I’ve rewritten every word I said
But it won’t bring you back again
I’m still holding on
To what we had before it was gone
You're still the light in my darkest days
No matter how far you are away
I’d still choose you every time
You were always the best part of my life
You’re not really gone
I’m still holding on
If you ever wonder late at night
Did I love you with all my might?
The answer’s yes, it’s always been
I'd do it all again
I’m still holding on
To what we had before it was gone
You're still the light in my darkest days
No matter how far you are away
I’d still choose you every time
You were always the best part of my life
You’re not really gone
I’m still holding on
