Holding Back the Years Songtext
von Another Level

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mmm, oh

Holdin′ back the years
Thinkin' of the fear I′ve had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear that's gone
Strangled by the wishes of Peter
Open for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later
Oh, Lord

And I'm holdin′, holdin′, holdin' on
Said I′m holdin'


Holdin′ back the years
Chance for me to escape from all I know
Holdin' back the tears
′Cause nothing here has grown
I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years, yeah
Nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could, yeah
Oh well

I'll keep holdin′ on (Keep on)
I′ll keep holdin' on (Keep on, keep on)
I′ll keep holdin' on (Holdin′ on)
I'll keep holdin′ on
So tight, yeah, yeah, oh, alright, oh, oh, now

I've wasted all my tears, yeah
Said I've wasted all those years, come on
Nothing had the chance to be good, no
′Cause nothing ever could
Oh, yeah, yeah

I′ll keep holdin' on (Keep on)
I′ll keep holdin' on (Holdin′ on)
I'll keep holdin′ on (Keep on, keep on)
I'll keep holdin' on, oh, oh, yeah

I say, I say, I say, I say, I say, oh (Holdin′ on)
Ooh, come on (Holdin′ on)
Ooh, I say I'm holdin′ on (Holdin' on)
Oh, oh (Holdin′ on)
