Lyrics I Held Her In My Arms - Original - Violent Femmes
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
