Lyrics

It's just a promise that she made
It was so long ago
It's just a promise and who keeps
A promise anymore
Said I'd be on her mind forever
Am I still there
Keeps me up at night
Just Hangin' On to Thin Air

Somebody said she asked about me
A few weeks ago
Said they thought there was a tear in her eye
But I don't know
Can't believe she'd still be thinking of me
Concerned that I'm here
Spending nights alone
Just Hangin' On to Thin Air

There's a whole world of lonely people
Needing someone to care
And I'm only one of the many
Who've learned that love is so rare

It's just a memory on the back of my mind
That won't fade
Just a feeling come to haunt me
On some rainy day
(and anyway)
Everybody's always waiting for someone
Who'll never be there
Everybody's always
Hangin' On to Thin Air

Ain't everybody always
Hangin' On to Thin Air
