Lyrics
Long Long Time
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.
Love will abide, taking things in stride
Sounds like good advice, but there's no one at my side
And time washes clean, love's wound unseen
That's what someone told me but I don't know what it means
Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make him mine
And I think I'm gonna love you
For a long, long time
Caught in my fears, blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me, when you never let me near
And I never drew, one response from you
All the while you failed all of the girls you never knew
Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make him mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me
For a long, long time
Wait for the day, you'll go away
Not that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of loss, who knows the cost
Living in the memory of a love that never was
Cause I've done everything I know
To try and change your mind
And I think I'm gonna miss you
For a long, long time
Yes I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you
For a long, long time
