Find comfort in a stranger, give me something unfamiliar.
Between these sheets lets hide away
One light on in the city, we'll lose ourselves completely.
Raindrops fill the alleyways.

As the world falls down around us.
Give me something to remember.

I am holding on, in the back of my mind, for dear life, dear life
I am holding on, in the back of my mind, for dear life, dear life
Oh I, oh I, I am holding on for dear life
Oh I, oh I, I am holding on for dear life

Keep looking for distraction, tonight we live in fiction.
In your arms I hide away
Two bodies in the darkness, not hard to find a weakness
Keep them holding light at bay
As the world falls down around us
Give me something to remember

I am holding on, in the back of my mind, for dear life, dear life
I am holding on, in the back of my mind, for dear life, dear life
Oh I, oh I, I am holding on for dear life
Oh I, oh I, I am holding on for dear life

When the morning comes, will it feel the same (will we feel the same)
When the morning comes, will it feel the same (will we feel the same)

I am holding on, in the back of my mind, for dear life, dear life
I am holding on, in the back of my mind, for dear life, dear life
Oh I, oh I, I am holding on for dear life
Oh I, oh I, I am holding on for dear life

I am holding on to you, tonight for dear life
I am holding on to you, tonight for dear life
I am holding on to you, tonight for dear life
I am holding on to you, tonight for dear life
