Holding Back

Oh, love, love is holdin' 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 holdin' back
 I know I've done you wrong (love)
 Leave me, I'm alright
 I'll see you in the mornin'
 And lovin' is holdin' back
 And I have been in mournin'
 Never told you that I seen the light
 You know I push it 'cause I go too far
 Somethin' 'bout what you said in the mornin'
 Never gave me a warnin'
 And while you walkin' free
 I stay in the middle unaccompanied
 Missin' you a little, won't you come and see?
 I wrote you a melody, can't you see that?
 'Cause, oh, our lovin', babe
 I know you won't admit it, but we're somethin', babe
 All I want to do is get you loved and laid
 I wrote you a melody, can't you see that?
 Love is holdin' 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 mornin'
 And lovin' is holdin' back
 And I have been in mournin'
 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 a melody, can't you see that?
 Baby, don't be afraid
 Not every conversation is a new grenade
 All I want to do is get you loved and laid
 I wrote you a melody, can't you see that?
 Love is holdin' 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 mornin'
 And lovin' is holdin' back
 And I have been in mournin'
 Anythin'
 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-oh-oh-oh
 'Cause I want you, 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, yeah
 I want you, I want you, I want you
 I want you, I want you (want you, want you, want you, want you, want you)
 Give me love, give me love, give me love
 Give me love, give me love, yeah (give me love, yeah)
 Love is holdin' back, yeah
 I know I've done you wrong
 (Over and over) (love)
 Leave me, I'm alright
 I'll see you in the mornin'
 And lovin' is holdin' back
 And I have been in mournin'
 Love is holdin' back, yeah
 I know I've done you wrong (oh, na-na-na-na-na-na)
 Leave me, I'm alright (oh, na-na-na-na-na-na)
 I'll see you in the mornin' (oh, na-na-na-na-na-na)
 (Baby, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you)
 And lovin' is holdin' back
 And I have been in mournin'
