Uriah Heep

Holding On

Uriah Heep


Lost, lost like a precious flame 
The ashes burn on 
The ghost of a love we had 
Tries to hold on, tries to hold on 

No communication 
All systems are down 
No new conversation 
Never a sound, never a sound 

What's the point in holdin' on 
When the spirit is gone, holdin' on 
What's the point in holdin' on 
When the spirit is gone 

Cold, cold as the empty night 
Deep in your eyes 
I know there's no truth, no light 
Only your lies, only your lies 

The circle's broken 
The damage is done 
The crystal lies 
Smashed on the floor 

Your presence has left me now 
Your spirit has gone 
The ghost of a love we had 
Tries to hold on, tries to hold on 

The circle's broken 
The damage is done 
So what's the point in holdin' on
