Holding It Back
Bilal

feat. Kimbra



[Verse 1: Bilal]

I be holding it back

But it's feeling like a heart attack

This is big as a heart can get

Can you give it to me before I die, girl?

I'm jonesin' foreal

You know my hands can't seem to sit still

I take your cup and fill to the rim

Up until dawn, and I'm still drinking


[Bridge: Kimbra]

Can this be, I'm so high

Carry me, til the light

Spend some time, make me moan

Take me down, sweet and low


[Chorus]

And we're coming, and we're going

And we don't know which way is up

And we don't know which way is down

We just flowing, and we're cooling

And we're loving, stripped down

Just loving, stripped down

And I never felt this way before


[Verse 2: Bilal]

I find myself looking up at the night

I swear these stars be looking like you


I meant to say just trying to get over the night

You said you couldn't stay and gave me the blues, baby

We got nothing to lose, I will always be here for you

Girl if you're with it, I'll be down more than you know

If you saw me, God give me a clue, baby


[Bridge: Kimbra]

Can this be, I'm so high

Carry me, til the light

Spend some time, I'll let go

Take me down, sweet and low


[Chorus]

And we're coming, and we're going

And we don't know which way is up

And we don't know which way is down

We just flowing, and we're cooling

And we're loving, stripped down

Just loving, stripped down

And I never felt this way before


And we're coming, and we're going

Which way is up

And we don't know which way is down

We just flowing

And we're loving, stripped down

Just loving, stripped down

Down
