Been a 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.
When I'm home, I take things for granted
Always looking past the good things I wear
Just in eyes
You can see the rest of soul always itching to run
When I'm home, when I'm home
I don't want nothing to change
I just want it to stay the same
It's been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
Well it's been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
I missed you
Been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
And I'm steering in the fast lane, counting every white line
Kiss you in the morning and meet when the sun shines
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na
When I'm alone, every highway looks the same
And I'm half the world away, I'll be calling out your name
I don't wanna run anymore
Unless I'm running to your door
It's been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
Well it's been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
I missed you
Been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
And I'm steering in the fast lane, counting every while line
Kiss you in the morning and meet when the sun shines
I'm expecting you to walk around the corner
And you looking at this ... and from the movie and you're crying
And you're speaking words of gibberish
Cause you don't know what you saying
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
So meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na
Cause it's been a bloody long time
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
So meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na
Well it's been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
Well it's been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
I missed you
Been a long time, been a long time, yeah, hey
And I'm steering in the fast lane, counting every...
... kiss you in the morning and meet when the sun shines
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Meet me in the sun shine
Na na na na na na na na
It's been a long time, a bloody long time
So meet me in the sunshine.
