Holding Back lyrics
It?s in the darkness of believing
It?s in the shadows where we have to stand
Beside the loving and the grieving
O I?ll never understand
It?s in the way it has to reach us
It?s in the restless of the shifting sand
And all the truth it has to teach us
O I?ll never understand
CHORUS
Holding back to listen to the ocean
Holding back to dance inside the storm
I may be foolish but I don?t care
As long as you are there
From edge to edge we take our pleasure
We follow blindly each insane command
Judged by some eternal measure
O I?ll never understand
O and peace is child to no-one
We?re held together by an endless strand
First to be woven then to be undone
O I?ll never understand
CHORUS
Soon all the promises are broken
And expectation passes underhand
And not a gentle word is spoken
O I?ll never understand
It?s in the darkness of believing
It?s in the shadows where we have to stand
Between the loving and the grieving
O I?ll never understand
