Holding Back The Days

[Verse 1]
Soak it up like yesterday’s good wine
Taste the vinegar, it hurts me to remind
Yeah you were my one and only friend
I left it unsaid, “this could be forever”
Or maybe I misread

[Pre Chorus]
Not for long is a blink of an eye
Save the tears that you're crying if you never say goodbye
I know we’re going to end up somewhere better than this place
Used to visit my mind a hundred times a day

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, keep holding back the days
Before I have to give up all these memories we made
Next time I see you around, will we just smile and wave?
I keep holding back, holding back
I keep holding back the days

[Verse 2]
Slumming round, shoplifting at the mall
How long can we put our face in the final curtain call?
There's nothing more embarrassing
When your heart’s out on your sleeve
And you find someone who understands
And you just can't believe

[Pre-Chorus]
All I want’s to be rare good nights
To be charming and beautiful
Before we kiss goodnight
Imagine getting older
Yeah, we would always say
That “whatever happens next
No, we won't change”

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, keep holding back the days
Before I have to give up all these memories we made
Next time I see you around, do we just smile and wave?
I keep holding back, holding back
I keep holding back the days
