Hey, don't worry, I've been lied to.
I've been there many times before.
Girl, don't you worry, I know where I stand.
I don't need this love.  I don't need your hand.
I know I could turn, blink and you'd be gone.
Then I must be prepared to turn and carry on.

But minute by minute by minute by minute,
I'll keep holding on.
(I'll keep holding on.) Oh.
(I'll keep holding on.)
Minute by minute by minute by minute,
I'll keep holding on.  (Oh, oooh, oh.)
Oh, oh.

You will stay just to watch me, darling,
Wilt away on lies from you.
Can't stop the habit of living on the run.
I take it all for granted like you're the only one.
Living on my own, somehow that sounds nice.
You think I'm your fool.
Well, you may just be right.

But minute by minute by minute by minute,
I'll keep holding on.
(I'll keep holding on.) Oh, oh.
(I'll keep holding on.)
Minute by minute by minute by minute,
I'll keep holding on.  (Oh, oooh, oh.)
I'll keep holding on.
Oh.

Call my name and I'll be gone.
You'll reach out and I won't be there.
Just my luck, you'll realize 
You should spend your life with someone.
You could spend your life with someone.

Minute by minute by minute by minute,
I'll keep holding on.  Yeah, yeah.
I'll keep holding.
Minute by minute by minute by minute,
I'll keep holding on.
Minute by minute by minute by minute.
I'll be holding on back to the memory.
Yeah, yeah.
Minute by minute by minute by minute.
