Three Long Years
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Three long years is a long, long time
To give your heart, then you find
The one you thought who loved you so true
Never has, never was, never been in love with you
You know, baby, it's time to make a move
Oh yeah, oh yeah, time to make a move
Three long years gone down the drain
Left your heart full of ache and pain
The one you thought who loved you so true
Never had, never was, never been in love with you
You know, baby, itime to make a move
Oh yeah, oh yeah, baby time to make a move
Three long years is three years too long
To let one man do one woman wrong
The one I thought loved me tenderly
Never has, never was, never been in love with me
You know, baby, it's time to make a move
Oh yeah, oh yeah, baby's time to make a move
