Please Don`t Hold Back Lyrics

Please Don`t Hold Back lyrics

40-watt bulb fills half the room

and then the other half is filled with
gloom

Fontella Bass is on the stereo

I wish someone would come
along and rescue me



please don't hold back

there's nothing
missing

there's nothing you lack

please don't hold back



there's just a few things that you can't forget

and then you stub them
out like your cigarette

shape yourself until you think it's right

and then you're still afraid to go out at night



ch.



late at night when the city sleeps

villains laugh and lovers weep

eyes sealed shut and we don't let on

that we're counting every second
until the dawn



ch
