Holding On To Good

[Verse 1] Baby, I’m not waiting I’m just holding on to good It’s still early, it’s still more than I should I’m off to Carolina I’m gonna wear my mama’s boots We may be parted, but that don’t cut us at the roots [Chorus 1] ’Cause in the morning, in the morning Sometimes I think about the way you held me In the morning, in the morning Sometimes I think about the way you held me [Verse 2] It’s colder in November The leaves are turning on the limbs The color’s brightest just before the branches thin And, yes, I still remember But I am trying to begin I met a new love and I’m growing into him [Chorus 2] But in the morning, in the morning Sometimes I think about the way you held me In the morning, in the morning Sometimes I think about the way you held me [Bridge] I see a new flag rising on an old flagpole A shotgun fired in the firing hole I’ll let the snow keep falling till my world is white I don’t need your hand tonight [Outro] But in the morning, in the morning Sometimes I think about the way you held me
