Lumineers, The - Holdin' Out Lyrics






Singing to myself
Singing for the neighbours
Holdin' on for work
Holdin' on to paper

I was on the left
You were only fading
I was on my own
Starin' at the ceiling

Hold, holdin' out

Read it on a map
Never how I planned it
Holdin' on for work
Taking it for granted

I was looking up
I was being blinded
Holdin' on for work
Hopin' that I'd find it

I was looking up
Holding on to patience
Counting up the days
Days that I'd been waiting

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

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

I was holdin'
Holding you
Holding
Waited for you
Waited for

    Does anyone think the last two lines of lyrics are different? I swear I hear him say, "Wading/made it through" and then "yeah we were more"? Given how he sings the rest of the song, the lyrics and the sounds of his vocals just aren't lining up for me...

    I went to see the movie with my son he was 3 at the time and there was Many familes in the theatre, and at the end when they played this song, i swear most People were crying.

  33. J.... B....

    These are not even the right lyrics...
    here are the correct ones:

    Singing to myself
    Singing for the neighbours
    Holdin' on for work
    Holdin' on to paper
    I was on the left
    You were only fading
    I was on my own
    Starin' at the ceiling
    Hold, holdin' out
    Read it on a map
    Never how I planned it
    Holdin' on for work
    Taking it for granted
    I was looking up
    I was being blinded
    Holdin' on for work
    Hopin' that I'd find it
    I was looking up
    Holding on to patience
    Counting up the days
    Days that I'd been waiting
    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
    I would lie awake at night
    Hopin' that one day I'd arrive
    I had waited all my life
    Yeah I was holdin'
    Holding you
    Yeah I was holdin'
    Waited for you
    Waited for

    J.... B....

    More accurate to say there were a few mistakes, not "those are not even the right lyrics." Thanks for your clarification, though.

    N.... Q....

    N.... Q....

    I'm pretty sure you meant "bawled" instead of "balled"...just sayin'

    N.... Q....

    Yesss I just heard it and had it too look up the song looking at my song singing along the lyrics
