Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Yael Naim - Too Long ------------------------------------------ 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 run 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 (in Hebrew) Ratsiti ligdol itcha lehizdaken Yikach ma sheyikach Yiten ma sheyiten [Translation: I wanted to grow up with you To grow old Whatever it takes Whatever it gives] 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? On my own? Strong enough?
