Holding Back The Years Lyrics & Chords By Simply Red

Holding back the years...
Thinking of the fear I've had so long
When somebody hears...
Listen to the fear that's gone...
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to neither sooner or later...
Oh-oh-oh
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding back the years
Chance for me escape from all I know
Holding 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 y-e-a-h...
Oh-oh-oh
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on...
So tired
Alright oh now
Well I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be... good...
Cause nothing ever could
Oh yeah oh...
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding holding holding
A-a-a-h... va-la-la-la-la-la-la-la la
I said ooh yeah
That's all I have today
It's all I have to say
