Holding Back the Years

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 arm of mater

Get to me sooner or later

Nothing ever could, yeah

I'll keep holding on

(I'll keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(Keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(Never let you go away)

I'll keep holding on

Holding back the years

Chance for me to escape from all I know

Holding back the tears, yeah

There's 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, yeah, yeah, alright

I'll keep holding on

(I'm gon' keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(Holding and holding and holding)

I'll keep holding on

(I'll keep holding, babe)

I'll keep holding on

(So tight)

I wasted all my tears

Wasted all those precious years

Nothing had the chance to be good

Nothing ever could, yeah, yeah and I'll

I'll keep holding on

(I'm gonna hold on, babe)

I'll keep holding on

(I'm gonna hold, hold, hold, hold on)

I'll keep holding on

(Can't let you go)

I'll keep holding on

(I keep holding and holding and holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(I can't let you go for nobody)

I'll keep holding on

(I'm gonna keep holding and holding, baby)

I'll keep holding on

(I, I)

I'll keep holding on

(I'll keep holding, holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(I'll keep holding on)
