"years"

(words & music by ron leary © 2004)

oh my mind is set
pack up these bags
we'll get the hell out of here
and i'll be waitin'
running that car
that'll run us out of here

these last few years
bills pilling up
it's always month to month
and things are burning
ain't that the luck
it's all burning to the ground

oh i've been holdin'
oh i've been holdin'
oh i've been
holdin' on after all these years
still holdin' on to you

the night lights so bright
seems things around
just never settle down
and there's no stars at night
must be 2 a.m.
drunks out erupting again

oh i've been holdin'
oh i've been holdin'
oh i've been
holdin' on after all these years
still holdin' on to you

as the years gone by
out in the countryside
it's gotten pretty dry
but still there are these days
something deep inside
it's refusing to die

oh i've been holdin'
oh i've been holdin'
oh i've been
holdin' on after all these years
still holdin' on to you
