Lyrics

[00:01.00] Simply Red - Holding Back The Years
[00:24.44] Holding back the years,
[00:29.92] Thinking of the fear I've had for so long.
[00:35.49] When somebody hears,
[00:41.10] Listen to the fear that's gone.
[00:47.97]
[00:49.46] Strangled by the wishes of pater,
[00:54.93] Hoping for the arm of mater,
[01:00.56] Get to me sooner or later,
[01:07.77]
[01:20.06] Holding back the years,
[01:25.50] Chance for me to escape from all I know.
[01:31.12] Holding back the tears.
[01:36.49] There's nothing here has grown.
[01:43.12]
[01:44.80] I've wasted all my tears,
[01:50.66] Wasted all those years.
[01:56.22] Nothing had the chance to be good,
[02:01.79] Nothing ever could, yeah.
[02:08.33]
[02:09.56] I'll keep holding on,
[02:14.98] I'll keep holding on,
[02:20.35] I'll keep holding on,
[02:26.15] I'll keep holding on.
[02:33.46] So tight.
[02:34.96]
[02:54.92] I've wasted all my tears,
[02:59.99] Wasted all those years.
[03:05.80] Nothing had the chance to be good,
[03:11.25] Nothing ever could, yeah.
[03:19.28] I'll keep holding on,
[03:24.65] I'll keep holding on,
[03:30.23] I'll keep holding on,
[03:35.85] I'll keep holding on.
[03:40.94] holding on...
[03:45.35]
[04:00.29] it's all I have to say
