Angie Stone - HOLDING BACK THE YEARS lyrics

rate me

Source: Ghettofabulous98

Ooh, yeah, ooh, ooh

Oh yeah, uh-huh

Listen

Holding back the years

Thinking about the fear I've had so long

Will somebody here listen

Listen to the fear that's gone

Strangled by the wishes I begged for

Hoping for the unmade for

To get to me the sooner or later

Oh Lord

Ooh

Holding back the years

Chance for me to escape from all I know

And uh holding back the tears yeah

Cause nothing here is wrong, oh Lord

I've wasted all my tears yeah

(Ain't no reason, no)

Wasted all those years

(Too many, too many they just go by)

Nothing had the chance to be good, no, no

Nothing ever could, oh no

But I'll keep holding on

(Gotta keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(Never let go no, no, no)

I'll keep holding on

(Gotta keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

Take your time, take your time

Suga take your time

Take your time

Take your time, take your time

Suga take your time

Take your time

Oh now

I've wasted all my tears

Wasted all those, those lonely, lonely years

Nothing had the chance to be good

Nothing ever could

I'll keep holding on

(Gotta keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

(Never let go no, no, no)

I'll keep holding on

(Gotta keep holding on)

I'll keep holding on

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Gotta just keep, keep

Keep holding on

No matter how tired

Gotta just keep, keep

Keep pressing on

As weary as it may seem... (repeat 4x)

Think it's a love song

Pull back, pulsate

Gonna keep holding on

Never, never, never let go

Oh yeah

I'll keep holding on
