Long Time Coming

Everybody wants to be loved

Every once in a while

We all need someone to hold onto

Just like a helpless child, yeah

Can you whisper in my ear

Let me know it's alright

It's been a long time coming

Down this road

And now I know

What I've been waitin' for

And like a lonely highway

I'm tryin' to get home

Ooo, love's been a long time comin'

You can love for a lifetime

You can love for a day

You can think you've got everything

But everything is nothing

When you throw it away, yeah

Then look in my eyes

And I have it all once again

It's been a long time comin'

Down this road

And now I know

What I've been waitin' for

It's like a lonely highway

I'm tryin' to get home

Ooo, love's been a long time comin'

Didn't know I was lost

Til you found me, uh huh

Didn't know I was blind

But now I see

Can you whisper in my ear?

Let me know it's alright

It's been a long time comin'

Down this road

And now I know

What I've been searchin' for

Oooh, been a long long highway

And now I see

Ooo, love's been a long time

Oooh been a long time

Love's been a long time comin'
