Chicago Holdin' On
[Verse 1: Bill Champlin, Jason Scheff]
Walking through time
Reaching for yesterday
Because we're frightened of tomorrow
Trying to find
The feeling that's gone astray, far away
I remember the look in your eyes
Love we made
Unafraid
Now we've opened the window
So let's not close the shade
[Chorus: All]
Holding on
Because the memory of you
Is something I just can't erase
Holding on
I don't know what to do
Because the pieces won't fit into place
But no matter what happens
We can't let it end this way
[Verse 2: Bill Champlin, Jason Scheff]
So far away
So close to something new
But we're holding off tomorrow
Maybe someday
We'll find what we need to do
Until then
We'll be doing the best that we can
Out of rhyme, out of time
While we're hiding our feelings
We're leaving love behind
[Chorus: All]
Holding on
Because the memory of you
Is something I just can't erase
Holding on
I don't know what to do
Because the pieces won't fit into place
But no matter what happens
We can't let it end this way
[Bridge: All, Bill Champlin]
Far away
Reaching for yesterday
So far away
Something had gone away
So afraid
To find what we had
[Chorus: All]
Holding on
Because the memory of you
Is something I just can't erase
Holding on
I don't know what to do
Because the pieces won't fit into place
But no matter what happens
We can't let it end this way
