Holding Back

Oh, love

Love is holding back

I know I've done you wrong

Did I say too much?

Drown my sorrows, called you up

When the truth is tough

Honesty may not be enough

'Cause love is holding back

I know I've done you wrong

Love

Leave me, I'm alright

I'll see you in the morning

And loving is holding back

And I have been in mourning

Never told you that I seen the light

You know I push it 'cause I go too far

Something 'bout what you said in the morning

Never gave me a warning, ah

And while you walkin' free

I stay in the middle unaccompanied

Missing you a little, won't you come and see?

I wrote you a melody, can't you see that?

It's you I love and, babe

I know you won't admit it but we're something, babe

All I wanna do is get you loved and laid

I wrote you a melody, can't you see that?

Love is holding back

I know I've done you wrong

Did I say too much? (Love)

Leave me, I'm alright

I'll see you in the morning

And loving is holding back

And I have been in mourning

I remember when you locked us out

We had to climb in through the window, how

Lifted me up, was on the second floor and

I always love that story

And while you talk to me

You don't think I listen, but I do, you see

Words are never bitter 'cause your voice so sweet

Your voice is like melody, can't you see that?

Baby, don't be afraid

Not every conversation is new grenade

All I wanna do is get you loved and laid

I wrote you a melody, can't you see that?

Love is holding back

I know I've done you wrong

Did I say too much? (Love)

Leave me, I'm alright

I'll see you in the morning

And loving is holding back

And I have been in mourning

Anything

I want you more than

All time

I want you more than

Moonlight

I want you more than

Sunshine

I want you more than

Water

I want you more than

High tides

So don't you say that our time is up

Our time ain't up, oh ooh

'Cause I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you

Give me love, give me love, give me love, give me love, give me love

I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you

Give me love, give me love, give me love, give me love, give me love

Give me love, yeah

Love is holding back

I know I've done you wrong

Leave me, I'm alright

I'll see you in the morning

And loving is holding back

And I have been in mourning

Love is holding back

I know I've done you wrong

Leave me, I'm alright

I'll see you in the morning

And loving is holding back

And I have been in mourning
