Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde Now when we started - no interventions I wanted everything with no conditions You took my love and told it to the world But now it really changes things The ring you wear belongs to someone else Somebody else and my heart keeps saying Hold back - Hold back your love Baby it's just a crazy thing to start Hold back - Hold back your love Maybe it's just the easy way to part Hold back - Hold back (Hold back, hold back...) No denials - No introspection I'm not competing for some true perfection I wanted something that's fine and that's for sure And now I wonder how she feels 'cos in her heart she knows there's someone else Somebody else and I hear her saying Hold back - Hold back your love Baby it's just a crazy thing to start Hold back - Hold back your love Maybe it's just the easy way to part Hold back - Hold back Hold back (Hold back) Hold back your love Hold back (Hold back) Hold back your love (Baby...) Hold back (Hold back) Hold back your love Baby it's just a crazy thing to start Baby it's just a crazy thing you gotta hold back - hold back your love (Hold back) - Hold back your love (Hold back) - You gotta hold back your love (ooh) You gotta hold back your love (ooh) Hold back your love Hold back (Hold back) (ooh) (ooh) Hold back (ad lib to fade)
