Select language to translate this lyric
I once held that someone special, didn't have to let go
I just stood back and watched my future pass
And for the awful shape I am in, I can only blame myself
It's no wonder that her love for me wasn't strong enough to last
Holding on for all its worth to all that we got left
And for what its worth we've been less than easy on ourself
If we could write a book they couldn't keep it on the shelf
We're just trying to get it right with all that we've got left
I was there when the bar room opened
I've been there at closing time
There were things I couldn't handle by myself
Then the right one picked me up and we left it all behind
She said I am all she loving me and for me there's no one else
Holding on for all its worth to all that we got left
And for what it's worth we've been less than easy on ourself
If we could write a book they couldn't keep it on the shelf
We're just trying to get it right with all that we've got left
We're just trying to get it right with all that we've got left
