Take That - Holding back the tears
.
I kind of keep asking myself little questions
Like where do I go from here?
I seem to keep losing track of time and how long it's been
Since I last had you near.
Been a painful road to a door that's closed,
Been a gamble that I knew I couldn't win,
Been a lonely conversation to this photograph of you,
In the mirror there's a sign I must give in.
So, I'm not holding back the tears anymore
Tryin' to escape the heartache, tryin' to escape emotion.
No, I'm not holding back the tears anymore.
Yesterday's my memory reminding me of all the time
That I depended on you.
I used to enjoy speding time on my own here,
Watching the jaded people pass.
Now here I am sharing their pain and their lonely tears
And walking a road of broken glass.
It's a constant fight to get through each day and night,
It's a war between the present and the past
And the face that's in your mind
Everytime you close your eyes.
What's the reason? What's the answer?
How long will this last?
So, I'm not holding back the tears anymore
Tryin' to escape the heartache, tryin' to escape emotion.
No, I'm not holding back the tears anymore.
Yesterday's my memory reminding me of all the time
That I depended on you.
Been a long long time since I heard your last goodbye.
Still I hear it clearly every day and night.
What's the point in love when you have to give it up?
Yet still you need it and it's nowhere you can find.
So, I'm not holding back the tears anymore
Tryin' to escape the heartache, tryin' to escape emotion.
No, I'm not holding back the tears anymore.
Yesterday's my memory reminding me of all the time
That I depended on you.
