I look around and I wonder   How much pain does it take   To admit to a failure   I've made a mistake      I talk like I hate you   I just need to be free   I don't mean to hurt you but   It's time to think about me      You say that you love me   You're makin' me cry   You say that you need me   But I'm not about to lie      Holding on to you is as mad as it seems   Holding on to you is the end of my dreams   Didn't know time could move so fast   You and I were living in the past      Holding on to you is as mad as it seems   Holding on to you is the end of our dreams   You know time can move so fast   Before you know we're living in the past   Holding on to you is letting go of me      Was I ever so foolish?   I tried so hard to believe   That you were the answer   But I was deceived      I talk like I hate you   But it just ain't the truth   While love lies sleeping   I'm gonna make my move      You say that you love me   You're makin' me cry   You say that you need me   But I'm not about to lie      Holding on to you is as mad as it seems   Holding on to you is the end of my dreams   Didn't know time could move so fast   You and I were living in the past      Holding on to you is as mad as it seems   Holding on to you is the end of our dreams   You know time can move so fast   Before you know we're living in the past   'Cause holding on to you is letting go of me      It's time to step to the future baby   Don't look back you know it ain't easy   When it's time for change   To make new arrangements baby   Don't look back, you know I can't lie      Holding on to you, holding on to you   There goes my dream   Didn't know time could move so fast   You and I were living in the past      Holding on to you is as mad as it seems   Holding on to you is the end of our dreams   You know time could move so fast   Before you know we're living in the past   'Cause holding on to you is letting go of me      And I can't let go of me, and I won't let go of me   It's time to step to the future, I can do that baby   Make new arrangements baby   Make new arrangements baby   'Cause I can't let go of me   'Cause I can't let go of me
