Lyrics
Been So Long
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.
You still have time on your side.
In a world standing still for no one.
You packed up and made a new life.
For once you could make it right.
So let the story begin,
And realize that you'd better win this time.
Now its been so long.
We can shine bright as the day.
Its been so long,
we can be anything.
And its time,
to wrap yourself around it.
To let your spirit find it.
Say I'm the only one,
that you could ever depend on.
The words hit the air then there gone.
I love it when the truth is beautiful.
Now its been so long.
We can shine bright as the day.
Its been so long,
we can be anything.
How long,
tell me how long must we wait?
What if I,
crashed here just tonight.
Baby, what if I,
I let you brake my heart baby.
What if I,
I gave you what you want baby.
Now its been so long.
We can shine bright as the day.
Its been so long,
we can be anything.
How long,
tell me how long must we wait?
Its been so long,
we can shine bright as the day.
Its been so long,
we can be anything.
How long, (how long)
tell me how long must we wait?
What if I,
crashed here just tonight.
