Lyrics Can't Hold On (c) 2012 Elissa Sophia Metropoulos and Zahra Lysora
Saw you today
With a girl on your arm
Wish I was there
Saw you yesterday
Playing your guitar at the Uptown Bar
With a different girl I had to stare
Sometimes I wonder
If you see me lookin’ atcha
Would you turn the other way?
Can’t hold on to what I never had
Lost in a world of fantasy
Can’t hold on to what I never had
Can’t make these dreams reality
Saw a shooting star
And I just realized
I’m not where I want to be
Right before my eyes
I lost everything that I worked for
There is no one to blame there’s only me
Sometimes I wonder
If I tried to do it again
Would it turn out the same?
Whatever happened
To the broken wings
I left behind?
I could be flying
But I’m on the ground
No escape from gravity
