Ilse DeLange
Don’t Hold Back
[Verse 1]
You may think that no one really sees you
Unassuming, doing what you need to
Give some hope, bring a smile
Cause you know what that means
Lend a hand to a friend
Helping someone in need

[Pre-Chorus]
Silenty
You don't think we see

[Chorus]
That you don't hold back on the love
The love that you need too
When kindness is what you give
It always surrounds you
A bright light to guide you through a storm
Safe arms to hold and keep you warm
Enfolding endlessly around you
When kindness is what you give
It always surrounds you

[Verse 2]
You've had more than your share of hard times
But somehow you're always there to see me through mine
Every word, every call
Evеry time that you came through
Is already wеll
On its way back to you
[Chorus]
Cause you don't hold back on the love
The love that you need too
When kindness is what you give
It always surrounds you
A bright light to guide you through a storm
Safe arms to hold and keep you warm
Enfolding endlessly around you

[Bridge]
No, you won't have to ask
And there is enough to last
Enough to keep you strong
And that's the way it is
You get back what you give
It's been left unsaid too long

[Chorus]
Cause you don't hold back on the love
The love that you need too
When kindness is what you give
It always surrounds you

You don't hold back on the love
The love that you need too
When kindness is what you give
It always surrounds you
A bright light to guide you through a storm
Safe arms to hold and keep you warm
Enfolding endlessly around you
When kindness is what you give
It always surrounds you
