Hold Back The Tears
Composer(s): Chris Eaton
Performer(s): Janet Jackson



So sad, but there's nothin' that I can do
Things are so bad, you forget every word I've spoken to you
Love is when it touches you down inside
Why wait, are you lookin' for somewhere to hide?

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover
maybe there could be someone who cares for you
You've gotta hold back the tears
Don't have to say never
love will come to those who are prepared
To give it back

Time will never be on your side
Listen, it could be your only chance to survive
This love is waiting to call you home
Don't wait, you'll never be on your own

You've gotta hold back the tears
Soon you will discover
