[Verse 1]
You sang your swan song to the dogs
As they made mincemeat of the dreams you hung your hopes on
So you counted out what your sins cost
While money talks to your conscience, working like a fool for love
[Chorus]
Dear life, I’m holding on
Dear life, I’m holding on
How long must I wait
Before the thrill is gone
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
You drove your Rolls into the swamp
And stole away like a thief, reeling from the sticker shock
Of the price they put upon your soul
You buy it back from the burning ashes of the devil you know
[Chorus]
Dear life, I’m holding on
Dear life, I’m holding on
How long must I wait
Before the thrill is gone
You sang your swan song to the dogs
As they made mincemeat of the dreams you hung your hopes on
So you counted out what your sins cost
While money talks to your conscience, working like a fool for love
[Chorus]
Dear life, I’m holding on
Dear life, I’m holding on
How long must I wait
Before the thrill is gone
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
You drove your Rolls into the swamp
And stole away like a thief, reeling from the sticker shock
Of the price they put upon your soul
You buy it back from the burning ashes of the devil you know
[Chorus]
Dear life, I’m holding on
Dear life, I’m holding on
How long must I wait
Before the thrill is gone
