IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

I WASN'T GETTIN THROUGH

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

ID WISH I KNEW

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

THAT'S WHEN I FINALLY MET YOU

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

MOVIN ON MY WAY

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

WITH A NEW PLACE TO STAY

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

I KNEW I WAS THROUGH

THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER

AND I'M SEEING BRIGHTER WEATHER

FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME TODAY

NOW THERE'S NOTHING LEFT

FOR ME TO SAY...YA

THINGS ARE GETTING BETTER

AND I'M SEEING BRIGHTER WEATHER

FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME... TODAY

 IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

NOT LOOKING BACK NO MORE

FINALLY GOT THE CHANCE

TO SETTLE THE SCORE

SOMETIMES I DON'T EVEN KNOW

WHAT THE FIGHTING WAS FOR

FOR ALL THIS TIME, FOR ALL THIS TIME

FOR ALL THIS TIME

DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE

TO SACRIFICE

TO DO WITH OUT

OR PAY THE PRICE

DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE

TO FEEL SUCH PAIN

OR LIVE WITH THINGS

YOU JUST CAN'T EXPLAIN

DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE

TO BE ABUSED

FULL OF RAGE

LIED TO AND USED

DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE

TO GET BY ON YOUR OWN

FEEL REJECTION

EMPTY, SO ALONE

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

REPEAT

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

I WASN'T GETTIN THROUGH

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

ID WISH I KNEW

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

THEN I MET YOU

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

 SINCE I HAVEN'T RUN

IT'S BEEN ALONG TIME

SINCE I HAD SOME FUN

A ROAD THAT ENDS BEYOND THE SUN

I FINALLY REALIZED

I WAS DONE, I WAS DONE, I WAS DONE
