Let the tears fall like rain If that's what it takes To wash away your memory Let the hurt take it's time I don't mind waiting If that's the way it's gotta be I'll keep holdin' on 'til the heartache's gone All the might have been's And the never will be's They can never take your place But they're all that's left Of all that ever mattered to me And they fill this empty space And I'll keep holin' on 'til the heartache's gone I'll make believe you still love me 'til the heartache's gone I'll pretend you still care You'll always be here 'til the heartache's gone Baby I can make it through The pain of losing you If that's the way it's gotta be I'll keep holdin' on No matter how long 'til the heartache's gone
