The Long One
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.
There's no holding you back when you're leavin'
I'll have to face it alone until tomorrow
And as your fading away
I know it's a matter of hours till the tears begin
Guess I'll turn out the lights and I'll settle in
For the long one
For the restless night
As your memory plays with no end in sight
It's a strong one and it holds on tight
Laying in the darkness
Praying for the morning sun
It's a long one
I've been through this before it wasn't easy
I think I'm ready this time
I think I'm ready
I'll lay down on this bed and then
I'll imagine your touch and I'll see your face
And the shadows will come and surround this place
For the long one
For the restless night
As your memory plays with no end in sight
It's a strong one and it holds on tight
Laying in the darkness
Praying for the morning sun
It's a long one
These days go by so fast
Oh, I just turn around then they're gone
And when the night time goes
It's long and lonely
Holding on and on
For the long one
For the restless night
As your memory plays with no end in sight
It's a strong one and it holds on tight
Laying in the dark
Praying for the morning sun
It's a long one
It's a long one
