Lyrics Holding Back - The Three Degrees

Holding Back

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
