I Can't Hold On - Karla Bonoff

Oh baby, this time it's a good-bye 
And you can be sure that I won't cry 
Our love is just a faded story 
I'm walking down the road 
And you've just got to let me go 

Chorus
Cause I can't hold on 
I can't hold on 
I can't hold on anymore 

And what was that sweet lullabye 
And were all those promises just lies 
Well, I was just a fool to love you 
I knew it all along 
I can't look down, I know I'm falling 

CHORUS 

When you act the way that you do 
I want to scream and shout 
You keep on playing games 
I walk around the block 
And think maybe you'll change 
But just when it seems we've got it all worked out 
You start naming names 
I don't believe that I was the one to blame 

Any maybe next time you'll cry 
When someone like me says good-bye 
You'll wake up when she's gone and wonder 
How you could let her go 
But look at me, I'm going under 

CHORUS
