Thought of Holding You Lyrics

Working on an oil rig

In the Gulf of Mexico

Dirty hands and the wind so cold

All I want to think about is you

Waiting on that boat to come

To take me to shore when the work is done

I'll drive a hundred miles Before I'm through

Till I see you

I can see you waving from the porch steps

Warm breeze dancing through your hair

Running up to me in that silky white dress

For a moment I was there

No matter what I do

I keep holding onto

The thought of holding you

Been working all day

Up half the night

Runs in my blood

This blue color life

living on coffee

and thoughts of home

Still waiting on that boat to come

Take me to shore when the work is done

Ill drive a hundred miles till I'm through

Till I see you

I can see you waving from the porch steps

Warm breeze dancing through your hair

Running up to me in that silky white dress

For a moment I was there

No matter what I do

I keep holding onto

The thought of holding you

No matter what I do

I keep holding onto

The thought of holding you
