As Long As You Hold Me
Kirsty Maccoll


As long as
You hold me
I'll get by

As long as
You need me
I will try
Not to die

I don't want
The shame
I don't want
The blame
I don't want
The fame
Anymore

If only
They'd tell me
Tell me why

If I could believe them
And their lies

But I don't want
Their name
I don't want
Their pain
I won't play
Their games
Anymore

I always look
At the last page
Of the book
How will it end
The suspense
Robs me
Of lovers and friends

I don't want
The shame
I don't want
The blame
I don't want
The fame
Anymore
