Lyrics 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 Simply Red have over a billion hits on YouTube, have sold over 60 million albums worldwide, 5 going to number one in the UK. Their 1991 classic Stars was the best-selling album for two years running in Britain and Europe. They have had two US Billboard chart toppers with classic singles Holding Back The Years and If You Don’t Know Me By Now. Every Simply Red studio album has been a UK top ten (with previous release Big Love reaching number 4 in 2015). Hucknall has been the songwriter and bandleader since the beginning in 1985.
