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 the sooner or later

Holding back the years

Chance for me to escape from all I know

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 try

All right

All right now

I've wasted all my tears

Wasted all of those years

And nothing had the chance to be good

'Cause 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 hold

La la la la la la la

I say oh yeah

It's all I have today

It's all I have to say
