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 Hopin' for the arms of mater Get to me the sooner or later
Holding back the years Chance for me escape from all I've known 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, yeah oh well
I'll keep holding on I'll keep holding on I'll keep holding on I'll keep holding on
So tight
All right, All right, All right, 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
I'll keep holding on I'll keep holding on I'll keep holding on I'll keep holding on
Holding holding holding on La… I say ooh well That's all I have today It's all I have to say
