Lyrics Holdin' Out - The Lumineers

Singin' to myself, singin' for the neighbours
Holdin' on for work, holdin' on to paper
I was on the left, you were only fadin'
I was on my own, starin' at the ceilin'
Holdin', holdin' out

Read it on a map, never how I planned it
Holdin' on for work, takin' it for granted
I was lookin' up, I was bein' blinded
Holdin' on for work, hopin' that I'd find it

Who-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Who-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Who-

I was lookin' up, holdin' on to patience
Countin' up the days, days that I'd been waitin'
You can take your time, I'll be on the front porch
Keepin' on the light, you can see it if you look for it

Hoo
Hoo-ooh
Who-ooh
Hoo-ooh

I would lie awake at night
Hopin' that one day I'd run
I have waited all my life

Who-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Who-ooh
Hoo-ooh

Yeah, I was holdin' (singin' to myself)
Holdin' you (holdin' on for work)
Yeah, I was holdin' (I was on the left)
Made it through (I was on my own)

Yeah, waited for
