Simply Red
A, Am, C, D, Dm, Em, G
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 Paton
Hoping for the arms of nature, get to me sooner or later.
Holding back the year, the chance for me to escape from all I've known.
Holding back the tears
'Cause nothing here has grown
I wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding, holding, holding on
Well, I wasted all my tears, wasted all those years.
And nothing had the chance to be good.
Nothing ever could.
I'll keep holding on, I'll keep holding on, I'll keep holding on, I'll keep holding on.
