| Held Back | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I was afraid of what might happen | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| You are so careful with you heart | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I didn't want to jeopardize our friendship | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I thought I would wait until the end of the year | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Even if you felt the same, I didn't know if I was worthy of that | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I was worried that you only saw me as a friend | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Or worse, if you thought of me as a sister | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I held back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| My friends tell me to let you know how I feel | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� But I hold back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| The way you smile lights up my day, but I don't know what's behind that smile | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� So I hold back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Time is slipping away before we part | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� But I still hold back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Isn't it obvious how I feel | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| ����������� Even though I hold back? | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| I hold back so much but what if I stop, what then, what would happen? | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Would you tell me you feel the same, would you reject me, or would nothing happen? | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| If only I know, if only.... | ||||||||||||||||||||||
