Has it been so long I used to cling to you
Have I lost the song - I used to sing to you
In all of my distraction
I find no satisfaction
And I've got empty spaces here inside of me
These hallow dreams that I've been chasing They're just out of reach
In my longing in my wishing
It was you that I've been missing
But now I know
I'm holding on I'm never gonna let you go
Until I leave this world behind
I'm holding on for dear life
But now I see
I'm holding on I know you're gonna set me free (rescue me)
And even till the end of time
I'm holding on for dear life
I tried the broken cisterns but the waters fail
The world and it's dream - this empty system - It's just a great betrayal
I tried so many places
To fill my empty spaces
