Holding on for life


Girl take a seat, rest your weary bones
your secrets safe in my hands
tell me about the years and let me buy an hour
maybe help me to understand
ain't nobody callin, ain't nobody home
what a lovely day to be lonely

you're holding on for life, holding on for life
holding on for love.
you're holding on for life, holding on for life
holding on for love.

light another cigarette, burning in the cold
waiting on the street for your man
you're trying not to look so young and miserable
you gotta get your kicks while you can
in the lighted corner, sitting on your own
what a lovely day to be lonely

you're holding on for life, holding on for life
holding on for love.
you're holding on for life, holding on for life
holding on for love.

well you might belong to another time
still you have to carry on here
no where else to go and you never know
what to hide and what to show.

you're holding on for life, holding on for life
holding on for love.
you're holding on for life, holding on for life
holding on for love.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Broken Bells is an American indie rock duo consisting of artist and producer Brian Burton (better known as Danger Mouse) and James Mercer, lead vocalist and guitarist for the Portland indie rock band The Shins. The project was first announced on September 29, 2009. Burton and Mercer met at the Roskilde Festival, a Danish music festival, in 2004 and discovered they were fans of each other's work. After four years of waiting, the two began collaborating secretly in March 2008 at Burton's Los Angeles-based studio. They describe their material as "melodic but experimental too". Their self-titled debut album, released in 2010, was met with critical acclaim and commercial success. Notable tracks include "The High Road", "Holding On For Life" and "After the Disco".
