Simply Red - Song Book 1985-2010

Holding Back the Years

Holdin' back the years
Thinkin' of the fear I've had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear that's gone

Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hopin' for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later
Oh-oh

Holdin' back the years
Chance for me to escape from all I've known
Holdin' back the tears
'Cause nothing here has grown

I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
Nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could, yeah
Oh-oh, well

I'll keep holdin' on
I'll keep holdin' on
I'll keep holdin' on
I'll keep holdin' on
So tight

Alright
Oh, now

Well, I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
'Cause nothing ever could, oh yeah
Oh

I'll keep holdin' on
I'll keep holdin' on
I'll keep holdin' on
I'll keep holdin' on

Holdin', holdin, holdin' on
La-la-la-la-la-la
I said, "Ooh, yeah"
That's all I have today
It's all I have to say
