Lyrics
(I'll keep on holdin' on) oh yes I will
(I'll keep on holdin' on)
I know that you're the kinda guy (you're that kinda guy)
You got too much pride (ooh-ooh)
Scared to love someone (love someone)
So you run and hide (ooh-ooh)
Well, each and every day
And each and every way
My love is growin' stronger
And I know that you can't hold on much longer
When there's no place left to hide
I'll still be by your side
Cause I'll be (waiting) oh yes
(Watching) sure 'nough
(Looking for a chance) a chance to make you mine
I'll keep on holdin' on
I know you're braggin' to your (to your friends)
That you can't be caught (ooh-ooh)
But baby you don't know (you don't know)
So it's time that you were taught
So love, you'd better plan to make your final stand
No matter where you run now
I'll hold on till my will to resist is gone
Till I get you where I want you
There love, I'm gonna haunt you
(Waiting) oh yes
(Watching) sure 'nough
(Looking for a chance) a chance to make you mine
I'll keep on holdin' on
No matter where you run boy
I'll keep on holdin' on
No matter where you hide boy
I'll keep on holdin' on
Oh you'll never get away boy
I'll keep on holdin' on
Ooh yes, yeah
