Lyrics:
Oh love
Love is holding back
I know I’ve done you wrong
Did I say too much?
Drown my sorrows, called you up
When the truth is tough
Honesty may not be enough
Cuz love is holding back
I know I’ve done you wrong
Love
Leave me I’m alright
I’ll see you in the morning
And loving is holding back
And I have been in mourning
Never told you that I seen the light
You know I push it cuz I go too far
Something bout what you said in the morning
Never gave me a warning
And while you walkin free
I stay in the middle unaccompanied
Missing you a little, wont you come and see?
I wrote you a melody, cant you see that?
Cuz ooh our loving babe
I know you wont admit it but we’re something babe
All I want to do is get you loved and laid
I wrote you a melody, cant you see that?
Love
Love is holding back
I know I’ve done you wrong
Did I say too much?
Love
Leave me I'm alright
I’ll see you in the morning
And loving is holding back
And I have been in mourning
I remember when you locked us out
We had to climb in through the window, how
Lifted me up, was on the second floor and
I always love that story
And while you talk to me
You don’t think I listen but I do you see
Words are never bitter cuz your voice so sweet
Your voice is like a melody, cant you see that?
Baby don’t be afraid
Not every conversation is a new grenade
All I want to do is get you loved and laid
I wrote you a melody, cant you see that?
Love
Love is holding back
I know I’ve done you wrong
Did I say too much?
Love
Leave me I’m alright
I’ll see you in the morning
And loving is holding back
And I have been in mourning
Anything
I want you more than all time
I want you more than moonlight
I want you more than sunshine
I want you more than water
I want you more than high tides
So don’t you say that our time is up
Our time aint up
Cuz I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love, yeah
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love, yeah
(Give me love, yeah)
Love
Love is holding back
I know I’ve done you wrong
Love
Leave me I’m alright
I’ll see you in the morning
And loving is holding back
And I have been in mourning
Love is holding back
(Oh na na na na na na)
(Oh na na na na na na)
(Oh na na na na na na)
Leave me I’m alright
I’ll see you in the morning
And loving is holding back
And I have been in mourning

[@_milky___]

Banks is so consistently good. Incredible how her theme stayed the same but evolved over time so much. Pure confidence, love it ✨

[@jessesanders647]

Uh, 👎 no

[@timajamilla5048]

Deadass! I’ve never heard a more consistent artist. Her sound stays the same but just evolves as you said, she’s slowly transforming and I love it💕

[@solariidn6985]

Everything is different, but everything ages well. What she wrote still surprises me from time to time, I find the most specific details that are the same with my experiences, things that I and a lot of people don't talk about.

[@Jxstvib1ng]

This and Skinnydipped are seriously so addictive. Can’t wait for the album!

[@heliotrope1779]

This song fills me up, I don’t know how to explain it but I love it!
I’ve been dying to see Banks live for over 5 years- missed out twice (18+ venue, then cancelled music festival 😭)
I’m going to the next show if it’s the last thing I ever do!

[@Joy-vj1zc]

Same! The first time was because of an 18+ venue and the second time was because my sister went into labor. I’m going to this next concert no matter what!

[@heliotrope1779]

@@Joy-vj1zc let’s hope 3rd time lucky hey!

[@wibbi2]

This song has been on repeat every single day since it came out! It’s so beautiful! „I know you won’t admit it but we’re something babe“

[@MillennialMagic]

A masterpiece 🥲 I can’t stop listening first thing in the morning, in the shower, in the car. This song heals me.

[@nathanielmasetla9781]

I still maintain that she's in her own league and lane. So raw, unmatched and incredibly crafted.❤️

[@1394jess]

“I’ll stay in the middle unaccompanied” …. don’t think i didn’t see that “got a reputation unaccompanied” Underdog reference 😉🙃❤️ ……
I resonate a lot with Holding Back’s lyrics, excited to hear more to come 🐍✨🐍✨🐍✨

[@aidaali8842]

Banks never misses and her voice is everything and more, so healing and touching to listen to. Goosebumps every single song.

[@reallycarly2]

God I love her music. And the aesthetic/vibe of this lyric video is so incredibly unique and beautiful. Just like her voice and artistry. Love!

[@vinsantp]

BANKS é tão viciante que Holding Back tá sendo a trilha sonora do meu dia desde o lançamento 😍

[@hewpreyes]

BANKS keeps serving no matter what era she gets into. proud of this queen!

[@chrissylove1104]

So good!! I've been listening this since you released it. I remember seeing you in concert in 2017 and I will never forget what an amazing performance you put on. You really wanted everyone to live in the moment 🖤🤍

[@asashoryuLapisphilosophorum]

nearly always on repeat, very nice song , i have the same "problem";)

[@zerrickgonzales3963]

damn, ive listened to banks since waiting game, it’s incredible to see how far she’s come as an artist and i’m glad she’s finally getting the exposure that she deserves. i’m so excited to hear this new album!

[@winamelon]

I can't see the lyrics well but idc. Banks never fails to make me feel better ❤❤❤

[@vbv198]

Are you kidding everything she puts out is pure gold!!! I’ve never listened to a song so much in two weeks!! She Jillian you’ve GOT IT YOU ARE JUST INDESCRIBABLE x

[@shannonsuxx]

Being an intense fan of Banks' first two albums, its taking me a while to get used to the progressin of her sound, but i aint mad at what she is putting out because I know she writes ervery single word.

[@parisryan1040]

Same. I wasn't a fan of most of her last album, but it's strange because I love this album so much.

[@75rxss]

Every artist should evolve though

[@Ready-ForTheEnd]

I like this song but not many of the others. Been listening since I was 12

[@taylorchameleon]

i really wanna give u the biggest hug one day. u have been like a big sister to me through ur music. i think i owe alot of who i have grown to be, to u, jillian. thank u for everything. endless love for u 🥺

[@SoSinsere69]

BANKS NEVER MISS¡! HOT DAMN

[@chelseashurmantine8153]

I cannot stop listening to this song. It came at just the right time like all her songs do

[@collXtionB_tch]

Ive had this one stuck in my head, it’s so good I swear✨

[@matheus-pr3cr]

this song is SO GOOOOD

[@fayz-dayz]

One thing about Banks, she’ll always use heavy drums😌👌🏾

[@sophrosyne5900]

Addicted to this song.

[@reneefoxchild4666]

Same Jillian from 2010 just so much more mature. Thank you for staying true to yourself and always sharing so much of yourself with us allowing us to heal from our own personal traumas with music full of good vibrations. Big inspiration

[@yonitgarini-7827]

Your music make me so powerful and healing my soul.❤❤❤

[@fayz-dayz]

That formant shift on the vocals is so goood! And that beat drop!!! Please😫

[@dylanlawson3937]

Love that you’re back! I am so excited for what is to come. The way you write songs with such emotion and power is unmatched. 🖤

[@veronicadiaz3228]

Thank you for the last 7 years. I hope you come to Barcelona sometime so that I can finally see you in person (last time you had to cancel the tour and, although I completely understood, I was so heartbroken). I started to listen to you when I was 14, and now I’m about to turn 21. You’ve helped me overcome abuse from my dad and from my ex, and you’ve made me feel stronger and free. I love you so much, you’ve helped me become who I am during this long journey and I’m SO grateful❤️ Also, congratulations for this incredible song! I can’t wait to listen to the whole Serpentina album!!! Love u

[@TheProgressiveForces]

Exquisite! Keep it coming. And come to the southeast on tour please!

[@joaoeliasgarbin9346]

[@parisryan1040]

Come on Queen. I'm loving this new era.

[@GrantEvans333]

Is “I always loved that story” supposed to have a double meaning with story meaning the actual story as well as the second floor? Love youuuuuu ❤️

[@deaven]

omg 🤒

[@UnIVerse-vjc]

The person you think about when you hear this song: ....do they know how much you love them? If words couldn't express that, send them this song💙
