Lyrics
Oooh....
I'm hangin' on to something and it isn't even mine
I'm hangin' on to an illusion, I've created in my mind
I'm hangin' on...to a dream just a dream
That I know could never be true
I'm hangin' on hangin' on forever
I'm hangin' on to you
When I first met you I wanted you all to myself
I guess I found you just a little too late
You're in love with someone else
But I couldn't help thinkin'
What it'd be like you with me instead....
And ever since no matter how hard I try
I can't get you out of my head...
I'm hangin' on to something and it isn't even mine
I'm hangin' on to an illusion, I've created in my mind
I'm hangin' on...to a dream just a dream
That I know could never be true
I'm hangin' on hangin' on forever
I'm hangin' on to you
I've tried movin on but you won't seem to leave me alone
I may as well enjoy your company
Since you've made my heart your new home
You're with me everyday it's an affair without the regret
I know, one sided love will hurt in the end
Still I can't get you out of my head..
I'm hangin' on to something and it isn't even mine
I'm hangin' on to an illusion, I've created in my mind
I'm hangin' on...to a dream just a dream
That I know could never be true
I'm hangin' on hangin' on forever
I'm hangin' on to you
I'm hangin' on to something and it isn't even mine
I'm hangin' on to an illusion, I've created in my mind
I'm hangin' on...to a dream just a dream
That I know could never be true
I'm hangin' on hangin' on forever
I'm hangin' on to you
