What in the world ever made that young girl cry
The tears down her cheeks, she tries to hide
And what of the man who pa**es calmly by, oh, I don't know
Oh, lies are no longer needed, he frankly conceded
I am not the way that you had hoped and prayed
Sorry if I've caused you any pain
But, please, believe me when I try to say
I feel as if I'm going insane, oh, it'll be better off this way
I was holding out for you, I was holding out for you
I was holding out for you, I was holding out for you
