Song language: English
I Held Her In My Arms |
| I’m gnawing on the knowledge that I have been burnt |
| And I’m learning things that I should’ve already learnt |
| Everyone I ever knew was so kind and coy |
| I was with a girl, but it felt like I was with a boy |
| I can’t even remember if we were lovers, or if I just wanted to |
| But I held her in my arms, I held her in my arms |
| I held her in my arms but it wasn’t you |
| I will not kill the one thing I love |
| In this world of wreckage, I look above |
| Help me, Lord, help me understand |
| What it means to be a boy and what it means to be a man |
| I can’t even remember if we were lovers, or if I just wanted to |
| But I held her in my arms, I held her in my arms |
| I held her in my arms but it wasn’t you |
| I’m gnawing on the knowledge that I have been burnt |
| And I’m learning things that I should’ve already learnt |
| Everyone I ever knew was so kind and coy |
| I was with a girl, but it felt like I was with a boy |
| I can’t even remember if we were lovers, or if I just wanted to |
| But I held her in my arms, I held her in my arms |
| I held her in my arms but it wasn’t you |
| I can’t even remember if we were lovers, or if I just wanted to |
| But I held her in my arms, I held her in my arms |
| I held her in my arms but it wasn’t you |
