I Took My Strength From You (I Had None) Songtext
von Burt Bacharach

Knowin′ the way the wind was gonna blow
That was the way that I'd be goin′
Too afraid to stand alone
Too unsure to ever make my mind up
Following the crowd was where I'd wind up

Just like the tide keeps changin' with the moon
Day after day I changed direction
Tryin′ hard to find myself
Wonderin′ where my hopes and dreams had gone to
There I was, with nothing to hold on to


Oh, but then I took my strength from you
I had none, I had none
And then I took my faith from you
I had none, I had none
Until I met you
Just when I needed your love, I met you

Tryin' hard to find myself
Wonderin′ where my hopes and dreams had gone to
There I was, with nothing to hold on to

Oh, but then I took my strength from you
I had none, I had none
And then I took my faith from you
I had none, I had none
Until I met you
Just when I needed your love, I met you

You see I was wonderin' where my hopes and dreams had gone to
There I was, with nothing to hold on to
