Lyrics Kirsty MacColl

Kirsty MacColl

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

I don't want the shame

I don't want the blame

I don't want the fame anymore
