I was tryin' to recover from a heartache situation
From a cold hearted lover who took a permanent vacation
You walked into my life and all my pain was gone
What took you so long
I've been watchin' every greyhound
Checkin' every train
Hangin' round the airport every night and everyday
Hopin' every plane was the one that you'd be on
What took you so long
What took you so long
Where you been
I've been here alone
It's been a month of sundays
Since my heart beat this strong
What took you so long
What took you so long
Now i've traded in this heartache for a ticket by your side
I know that this time it won't be a one way ride
Honey you're the one that i've been waiting on
What took you so long
What took you so long
Where you been
I've been here alone
It's been a month of sundays
Since my heart beat this strong
What took you so long
Tell me what took you so long
What took you so long
Where you been
I've been here alone
It's been a month of sundays
Since my heart beat this strong
What took you so long
What took you so long
Tell me what took you so long
