I'm Holding My Own
(Tony Arata)



You said the only thing harder
than saying goodbye
Was saying hello after all this time
But I ran into you with your new love in tow
You say you're worried 'bout me
And you want to know
How am I getting by

Chorus:

Well thank you I'm holding my own
Don't you worry 'bout me no more
It hurt me when you left me alone
But there's two sides to every door
And the life you left behind has led
to lives I'd never have known
So thank you I'm holding my own

Your new love walked on up
while we said goodbye
You took my hand and you caught my eye
Tell me there's a chance for another try
You would love to hear from me
some sweet time
I guess you didn't understand

Chorus

There's a lesson I learned
When a love stays true
If you look long enough
You'll find the one who was looking for you

Chorus

Thank you I'm holding my own
