I'm hanging on
(I'm hanging on)
I'm hanging on to everything that's going on
I'm going down, I'm going down
I'm going down this new path that I've just drawn
I'm leaving town
(I'm leaving town)
I'm leaving town tomorrow I will leave at dawn
So I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on to everything, don't let me go away.
It's been a long time
I should have left you
Left you without a dope beat to step to
(Step to)
Step to
(Step to, step to)
'Cause I've been waiting
(All night near you)
Near you without the chance to meet you
Meet you, meet you
(Meet you, meet you)
I can feel the dawn is really close now
Soon I'll be gone wondering how
How come I could not act, calm down and just react
But instead of that, I get myself another glass
Adjust my hat, maybe I'll get one of your glances
It's cat and mouse stuck in this sick trance
It's cat and mouse lost inside the dance
I don't know what's going on with that boy over there
He's dancing and he's drinking like he just doesn't care
I'll be gone tomorrow so I know it's not fair
But this night I just need some air
I don't know if I will ever see you again
We should flush our worries down the drain
But I know that deep inside I'm falling for him
Tomorrow it won't mean a thing
I'm writing down
I'm writing down
I'm writing down on all the things I should have done
I'm drinking down
I'm drinking down
I'm drinking down and soon it's all gonna be gone
I'm leaving town
I'm leaving town
I'm leaving town the memories will still live on
So I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on
I'm hanging on to everything, don't let me go away.
It's been a long time
I should have left you
Left you without a dope beat to step to
(Step to)
Step to
(Step to, step to)
'Cause I've been waiting
(All night near you)
Near you without the chance to meet you
Meet you, meet you
(Meet you, meet you)
I can feel the dawn is really close now

Tomorrow it won't mean a thing
I'm moving on
I'm moving on
I'm moving on and nothing's gonna get me down
I'm holding on
I'm holding on
I'm holding on and something new is gonna come around
