Trying To Hold Back Time Lyrics

Mama's looking at her baby fast asleep
Pulls him close, feels him breathe
She knows that he's gonna go away some day
Breaks her heart life's that wayShe's tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back timeTries to hide the lines on her face
Just a girl yesterday
She's smart enough to know the years are gonna pass
She don't mind, but not so fastShe's tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back timeIt's like tryin' to hold water in your hand
Slippin' through your fingers drippin' on the sand
It's just a waste of time
You're gonna find it's kinda likeTryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back time
Tryin' to hold back time

Tryin' to hold back time
