Nashville Cast - Holding On To What I Can't Hold Lyrics






It was so easy when I was younger
It didn't take much to feed the hunger
Somewhere along you lose the innocence
No idea where it mighta went
Spend your whole life looking for something

I'm holding on
I'm holding on
In my life is just the way it goes
Holding on
Holding on
It's hard to admit when you can't control
Holding on to what I can't hold

You had a reason for packing and leaving
I've got a reason for wanting and reaching
I'm not as big as I thought I was
Didn't go down the way I thought it would
I don't even know what it is I'm needing

I'm holding on
I'm holding on
In my life is just the way it goes
I'm holding on
Holding on
It's hard to admit when you can't control
Holding' on to what I can't hold

You find it and you drink it
And you hold it and you smoke it
Spend your whole life looking for something
I'm holding on
I'm holding on
In my life that's just the way it goes
Holding on
Holding on
Hard to admit when you can't control
Holding on to what I can't hold

    I can't believe we are going to see the LAST season six of "Nashville." Oh, No! What are we going to do when the best show on TV is gone? No, No, Say it Ain't So!

    Excerpt from Travis' article: "What I can't hold. I wrote this with Steve Robson. He wrote Thats what I'm doing these days, My wish, and a ton of other hits. His publisher asked if I would write with Him and Jeff Steele,I said yes I love them both. I didn't really think we needed a third but those english guys like a lot of people in the room for one song. Jeff didn't make the write. Steve had a track already built as usual. He hit play and i started letting the music tell me what it wanted to be. I started mumbling little syllables till they felt like words. Then when the melody felt right and the idea started coming it didn't take long at all.I think it took about two hours at most to write it and sing it. I ran into my old buddy MarkCollie at the men of Nashville thing I did a few days back at the Hall of fame. He said "man, Been a long time Travis, I love the song I sang of yours." I told him I think you may have the wrong guy I don't think thats my song. He said ok and that was that. About an hour later a knock cam on my dressing room Door, it was Mark. He was pointing at his phone and said is this your name by Steve Robson? I laughed and said i do believe it is. He said I cut your song last week its gonna air next wed. And that is how I found out I have another song on the TV show Nashville. Enjoy my version. Please don't share until we see for sure that it airs wed.
    Love

    Trav"

    co-written by Travis Meadows & Steve Robson. Travis one of the best songwriters of our generation! Mark Collie & Steve Robson did a great job with the song too. Gracias Amigos!
