Harlequin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you know the hold you got on me
You know I'm not complainin'
I'm just so tired of waitin'
I can't hold back
Though I'm tryin'
I can't hold back
I can't hold back
And it's all because of you
Don't you know what you put me through
Every night I'm sleepin' without you
You know I'm not complainin'
I'm just anticipatin'
I can't hold back
You know I'm tryin'
I can't hold back
I'm almost dyin'
I can't hold back
And it's all because of you
Can't hold back
You know I'm not complainin'
I'm just so tired of waitin'
I can't hold back
You know I'm tryin'
I can't hold back
I'm almost dyin'
I can't hold back
And it's all because of you
I can't hold back
Can't hold back
Can't hold back
Can't hold back
Can't hold back
I can't hold back
The lyrics to Harlequin's song "Can't Hold Back" express the frustration and longing of a person who is deeply in love with someone who has a hold on them. The singer admits to being unable to hold back their feelings and desires for the other person, even though they have tried to restrain themselves. The repetition of "I can't hold back" emphasizes this sense of helplessness and the intensity of their emotions.
The lyrics also suggest that the singer is constantly thinking about the other person, even when they are apart, and that this separation is causing them pain. The line "Every night I'm sleeping without you" highlights this sense of loss and loneliness. Despite this, the singer is not complaining but rather, they are anticipating their next time together.
Overall, "Can't Hold Back" is a powerful love song that expresses the intensity of the singer's emotions and the hold that their love interest has on them. The lyrics are simple, yet the repetition and the use of contrasts (like "complaining" versus "anticipating") give the song a depth and complexity that make it relatable to many people who have experienced intense feelings of love and longing.
