The Long Time Now Songtext / Lyric

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for the long time now



I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for the long time now



I can hear the footsteps

Following behind me, trying to find me

But when I turn around

I can't see where the path goes

Into the shadows

Into the shadows






I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for the long time now



I can hear you breathing

Whispering in my ear there is nothing to fear

But when I turn around

As I see the trees bow

I only hear the wind blow



By mistake I felt alone

In my heart I've always known

You'd be there to bring me home



I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for a long, long time

I've been waitin' for the long time now

I've been waitin' for the long time now

I've been waitin' for the long time now
