I know it's a shame Tell me it's okay Lately I've been thinking about the past How there is no holding back No point in wasting sorrow On things that won't be here tomorrow But you and I well, we don't need to speak It's the secret that we keep

She won't stop me put it down And don't look back Oh baby don't stop Bury me and fade to black So get your gun and meet me by the door Would I lie to you? Gun it while I'm holding on Don't stop if I fall Wait until it fades to black

Just like my mama said I'm going straight to hell And I'm going straight to hell 'Cause I'm going straight to hell I grew up just west of the tracks Holdin' me to hold me back Around your door she's callin' out my name

Yeah, you got me holdin' back, holdin' back You and I make so much love Why you got me all fucked up? So you better stay up, player Yeah, you better keep up, player 'Cause tonight is a game-changer 'Cause it ain't enough But it ain't enough You and I

What goes around comes back around Just look around It's been that way forever Baby, just look at you now, barely holding it together We were so in love, but you gave that up Are you happy now? This is what you wanted, baby now you got it Something is

Make that move right now, baby (Make that move) (Make that move) Make that move Everybody, everybody needs somebody to love And I choose you, baby, so let's You only go out once in a lifetime So many times By holding back I let the good things pass me by

Oh even if we're ready or not Ready or not but I waste no time I'm headin' out with some friends of mine Holdin' on to what we've got Ready or not but they're back in town The word is out that this time around They'll be lettin' go with all they've got

Nothing's gonna stop us. Uh-oh, why you holding back, now? Don't you know it's time to let your inner freak out? Uh-oh (Uh oh) Not when the beat is kicking like this does Why should I care about the opinion of others? I don't wanna spend my time hiding

I don't want you back If you don't want to give me your heart Until I know it's real But I'm still gonna love forever And I don't want to let you back Until I know All along I knew that you were Holding your feelings back from me And why ma said I'd do

And if forever never comes tonight I'll hold on, hold on (Now you know why) I'm lost without you And there's nothing I can do Your the one that I can't go without And by holding onto you, then I'll be holding on forever Never been together long enough
