[00:01.55]Simply Red-Holding Back The Years
[00:01.08]
Words Mick Hucknall
Music Mick Hucknall & Neil Moss
Holding back the years
Thinking of the fear Ive had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear thats gone
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later
[01:04.16]
Holding back the years
Chance for me to escape from all Ive known
Holding back the tears
Cause nothing here has grown
Ive wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could yeah
Ill keep holding on
So tight
Ive wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Cause nothing ever could oh yeah
Ill keep holding on
Holding, holding, holding
[03:48.04]Thats all I have today
[03:52.45]Its all I have to say
