As Long as You Hold Me

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
