Blue Rodeo - Holding On lyrics

I wouldn't mind if you told
Me I was wasting time
It's hard for me here trying to say
These things with you so near
I'm already undone, already undone

Now is the time I should
Leave these useless things behind
But fool that I am
I try to stay inside of your latest plan
I'm already undone

This time I promised myself that
I wouldn't sink so far but here I am
I'm wrapped around you in the
Glow of this empty bar
I wish I could hold my
Tongue and finally say "goodnight"
Am I holding on too tight?

Hours ago
I could pride myself on some control
But plans that I've made disappear
With every drink that's laid
I'm already undone, already undone

Yeah, there's a way but I can't even
Keep one single word I say
And I've been wrapped around your finger
From the very first day
I wish my legs would work and I
Could run out in the night
Am I holding on too tight?

I wouldn't mind if you put me
Out of my hurt some time
I'm waving the flag
Chasing beauty shouldn't be such a drag
I'm already undone, a-already undone

Now I am lost and I can't even feel my head
While you and all your friends are laughing
About something you wish you'd said
I wish I could just reach up
And turn out every light
Am I holding on too tight?
Yes, I know I'm holding on too tight
