Lyrics Holding Back the Years - MARINA

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

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on

Holding back the years
Chance for me escape from all I've known
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, ah oh oh oh

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
So tight

All right, oh now!

But 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 yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on

Holding, holding, holding aah la la la la la
I say ooh, where?
That's all I have today
It's all I have to say
