  • You never know how good you have it
    Until you're staring at a picture of the only girl that matters, yeah
    I know what we're supposed to do
    It's hard for me to let go of you
    So I'm just tryna hold on

    Hold on
    I don't wanna know what it's like when you're gone
    I don't wanna move on
    I don't wanna know what it's like when you're gone for good
    You're slipping through my fingertips
    A little bit by a little bit
    I didn't know that loving you was the happiest I've ever been
    So I'm just tryna hold on

    I need to learn how to cope without you
    And I'm tryna protect myself but only you know how to, yeah
    Oh, I know what we're supposed to do
    I hate the thought of losing you
    So, I'm just tryna hold on

    Hold on
    I don't wanna know what it's like when you're gone
    I don't wanna move on
    I don't wanna know what it's like when you're gone for good
    You're slipping through my fingertips
    A little bit by a little bit
    I didn't know that loving you was the happiest I've ever been
    So I'm just tryna hold on

    Starting to feel like you don't need me
    Wanna believe it's all for the better
    It's getting real, I'm missing you deeply, yeah
    So I'm just tryna hold on
    Starting to feel like you don't need me
    Wanna believe it's all for the better
    It's getting real, I'm missing you deeply
    So I'm just tryna hold on

    Hold on
    I don't wanna know what it's like when you're gone
    I don't wanna move on
    I don't wanna know what it's like when you're gone for good
    You're slipping through my fingertips
    A little bit by a little bit
    I didn't know that loving you was the happiest, oh, I've ever been
    So I'm just tryna hold on

    Oh, I'm just tryna hold on

    You're slipping through my fingertips
    A little bit by a little bit
    I didn't know that loving you was the happiest, I've ever been
    So I'm just tryna hold on Writer/s: Jonah Shy, Scott Harris, Shawn Mendes
