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 etched 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`ll be reachin for the light
I`ll be 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
