Held On Too Long (From “American Song Contest”)

We were livin' life Love lost in the sex And the drugs it was all I ever had I was out of my mind It was all a blur to me sometimes But you were all I ever had I put a lid back on the bottle And I'm pourin into me and you And I don't think about tomorrow Cause I know that I lost you So just go on with your life Don't you worry bout me I'll be fine I thought I could save us But I was wrong I guess we held on too long I kept it in the back of my mind I knew that we were runnin' out of time But still I stayed right by your side I could tell that there was something else By the way you put me on the shelf And I knew that it was time to say goodbye So just go on with your life Don't you worry bout me I'll be fine I thought I could save us But I was wrong I guess we held on too long
