Holding Back - The Three Degrees

I’ve been holding back from you

Something that you never knew

I’ve wanted to say so many times, that I love you

Haven’t you noticed my smile?

And when I look into your eyes

Didn’t you feel, that something was happening between us

You excite me by all that you are

You entice me with things that you say

I’d be a fool to let it slip way

I’ve been holding back from you

I’ve been holding back it’s true

I’ve been holding back from you

Far too long

You are there in every dream

You’re a guiding star to me

But I need to know, that you feel the same way I do

I can feel there’s warmth when we touch

And I love being with you so much

But we need to be reading the same lines

I’ve been holding back from you

I’ve been holding back it’s true

I’ve been holding back from you

For too long

I’ve been holding back from you

I’ve been holding back it’s true

I’ve been holding back from you

Far too long

Now I’ve told it all to you

Tell me what you going to do

Tell me those three word words

That lovers need to hear

I’ve been holding back from you

Something that you never knew

I’ve wanted to say so many times, that I love you

Haven’t you noticed my smile?

And when I look into your eyes

Didn’t you feel, that something was happening between us

You excite me by all that you are

You entice me with things that you say

I’d be a fool to let it slip way

I’ve been holding back from you

I’ve been holding back it’s true

I’ve been holding back from you

For too long

I’ve been holding back from you

I’ve been holding back it’s true

I’ve been holding back from you

Far too long

Holding back ad lib and fade

Holding back from you

Holding back it’s true
