Simply Red - HOLDING BACK THE YEARS (lyrics)

Wow i love this song always ❤😊 forever ❤

Speechless.......

❤

For me, this song is comforting when I think about my relationship with God, knowing that I can never be good enough, and holding on, hoping.

I lost my family ... life is strange with no support ... so I wander .... I keep holding on.

Madre mía.....la descubrí hace más de 30 años y la sigo amando cómo la primera vez que la oí...TOP FOR MI❤❤❤

She who feels it only knows

The words resonate with me. After my husband, Tom died in 2012 I have found my legs and have survived the wakes. I try to live a different life without Tom but I know I am just surviving. I know I'm wasting my tears, I'm wasting the years I have left. Oddly, enough I'm ok with it.

LYRICS HERE !!!

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 the sooner or later, oh

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

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on, so tight

Alright, oh now

Well, 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
Holding, la-la-la, la, la-la

I said, ooh, yeah

That's all I have today
It's all I have to say

You can't describe with words the power of this song, it is only to be experienced intensely and enjoyed. The one song that truly showcased the genius of Mick Hucknall.

None of these ppl respected me or loved me enough to do for me thanks for showing me who u are so I didbt make same mistakes again

No one did anything no matter how much I had asked walking away from every one emotionally

Ummm it cuts through the soul of souls. Singing this song on my morning shift... I will keep holding on...

so sad yet so powerful ...

❤tellement bonne été en Spectacle tu vas être super continue bye bisous ❤du Québec city

Didn t know such a hard and sad song. This song is always up todays😮😢😢❤

This song gives me chills….❤❤❤

When you wake up with the chorus of this song on your heart. You hunt the lyrics down to get the full message.. now I’m tearing up. My parent’s divorce when I was three and my father chose to live in So. Cal 8 hours away my whole life.. I’ve never had successful long term relationships. It’s definitely a tough message but I’m releasing this back to the universe. ❤️💯

He’s now old and lonely in his home town… Woww!

This was Anita Cobby’s favorite song. May she rest in peace.

I lost my oldest sister 4 days ago and this song is really helping me get through this hard time 😢😢💔

This is one of those songs that if it comes on the radio, I am cranking it up... want to slow dance. Needs a 10-minute remix version. I could dance to this for a long, long time.

❤

This is truly wonderful song! Love it.

Love this song ,hits when you’re in love ❤

Pater= father Mater= mother 💔

This is a great song that never got the attention it deserved when it first came out. I could never understand that. I loved it from the first time I heard it, and I bought the Cassette bc back then, there were no cds or any other ways to own it.

This is clearly a song about transitioning and the parents acceptance of it.
