Yael Naim Too Long Lyrics

Too Long Lyrics

I waited for so long outside myself

You see I was pretending to be someone else

I was longing to see who I wanted to be



And I've been waiting on my own

I've been waiting for too long

Not strong enough to be with you



And I've been making up my world

I've been painting it with gold

Not strong enough to see you, oh



I irrigate illusions then let them grow

How can I pacify myself and let go?

And I ran wild to see who I turned out to be



I've been waiting on my own

I've been waiting for too long

Not strong enough to be with you



And I've been making up my world

I've been painting it with gold

Not strong enough to see you



And I've been waiting on my own

I've been waiting for too long

Not strong enough to be with you



And I've been making up my world

I've been painting it with gold

Not strong enough to see you



I've been waiting on my own



[Foreign Content]

[Foreign Content]

But it was too cold in my world, my world



And I've been waiting on my own

I've been waiting for too long

Not strong enough to be with you



And I've been making up my world

I've been painting it with gold

Not strong enough to see you



See you, oh no

  (Strong enough I'm not strong enough to see you)

See you

  (Strong enough I'm not strong enough to see you)

(Strong enough I'm not strong enough to see you)
