Hold Back the Tears - Neil Young

Hello, my old friend, it’s good to see you smiling

You’ve been around so long, you must be strong

And single life really has its fine points

Like friends to help you out when things go wrong

Hold back the tears that you’ve been crying

Push off the fears when they come around

Hold back the tears and keep on trying

Just around the next corner may be waiting your true love

Two lying fools and then four crying eyes

Counting on one another to survive

Crazy love must surely have this pain

If getting up means going down again

Hold back the tears that you’ve been crying

Push off the fears when they come around

Hold back the tears and keep on trying

Just around the next corner may be waiting your true love

Hold back the tears that you’ve been crying

Push off the fears when they come around

Hold back the tears and keep on trying

Just around the next corner may be waiting your true love

Hold back the tears that you’ve been crying

Push off the fears when they come around

Hold back the tears and keep on trying

Just around the next corner may be waiting…
