I Held You So Long Lyrics - 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
