[Verse 1]
Saying goodbye
Can be the hardest thang to do
When you really love someone
You keep holding on
Hoping one or second will last
Ask you forever, but in turn
Letting go
Can be the hardest thang to do
When you truly care about someone
You can't say goodbye
Enough times to make the feelings last a lifetime
But all the memories never go away
[Refrain]
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
[Verse 2]
Believing in love
Can be the hardest thang to do
After losing a friend as close as you
I need to feel once again like a child in love
But I don't
I can't help but to keep
[Refrain]
Holding on
Holding on
(Not for a minute, for an hour)
Holding on
Holding on
[Outro]
Everything happens for a reason
Everything happens for a reason, they say
Everything happens for a reason, they say
Everything happens for a reason, they say
(They say, I don't know whether to believe them, they say)
Everything happens for a reason, they say, they say
They keep telling me everything happens for a reason, they say
I don't wanna lose your love one more time
Everything happens for a reason, they say
I don't wanna lose your love one more time
Not for a second, not for a minute, not for an hour
Everything happens for a reason, they say
Everything happens for a reason, they say
(Never give up, keep holding on)
Everything happens for a reason, they say
(Keep telling me that everything's gonna be alright)
Everything happens for a reason, they say
(Said everything happens, every little thing happens for a reason)
Everything happens for a reason, they say
(I don't know whether to believe them anymore, but they still keep telling me)
Everything happens for a reason (Reason), they say (They say)
Everything happens for a reason, they say
(Not, not for a minute, even for an hour that I want you gone)
Everything happens for a reason, they say
Everything happens for a reason
