I Held You so Long - Waltari

A time of no passion lives somewhere in me

Its a pity to realize that theres no more love

I held you in my arms, I held you so tight

But one day the flame went out and I was alone

Oh, Im going on, I held you oh so long

Oh, Im going on, to find where I belong

I felt I was happy, no-one knew about me

Someday they will find out, how brave Ive been

Oh, I held you oh so long

Oh, Im going on, I held you oh so long

Oh, Im going to the other side of dawn

Oh, Im going on like a hungry lion

But how strange, I felt empty, days didnt pass by

I missed you, felt helpless, I have to confess

Oh, Im coming back 'coz I held you oh so long

Oh, I need you so, theres no point in pretending

Oh, Im coming on, theres no hungry lion inside myself
