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 me
sooner or later
Holding back
the years
Chance for me
to escape from
all I know
Holding back
the tears
'Cos 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
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
So tight
All right
Ah now
But I've wasted
all my tears
Wasted all of
those years
And nothing had the
chance to be good
'Cos 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 ooh
La da la la la da
I say
Ooh yeah
It's all I have today
It's all I have to say
