Original Music video
"Holding back the years" was a single in November 1985 and again in June 1986. Its on the Picture Book album (1985) and is also on the compilation albums Simply Red Greatest Hits (1996), Its Only Love (2000) and The Greatest Hits 25 (2008)

Lyrics:

Holding back the years
Thinking of the fear Ive had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear thats gone
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later

Holding back the years
Chance for me to escape from all Ive known
Holding back the tears
Cause nothing here has grown
Ive wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could yeah

Ill keep holding on
Ill keep holding on
Ill keep holding on
Ill keep holding on
So tight

Ive wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
Cause nothing ever could oh yeah

Ill keep holding on
Ill keep holding on
Ill keep holding on
Ill keep holding on
Holding, holding, holding

Thats all I have today
Its all I have to say
