Long, Long Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Love will abide Take things in stride Sounds like good advice But there's no one at my side [Pre-Chorus] And time washes clean Love's wounds unseen That's what someone told me But I don't know what it means [Chorus] 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long, long time [Verse 2] Caught in my fears Blinking back the tears I can't say you hurt me When you never let me near [Pre-Chorus] And I never drew One response from you All the while you fell All over girls you never knew [Chorus] 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think it's going to hurt me For a long, long time [Verse 3] Wait for the day You'll go away Knowing that you warned me Of the price I'd have to pay [Pre-Chorus] And life's full of flaws Who knows the cause? Living in the memory Of a love that never was [Chorus] 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and change your mind And I think I'm going to miss you For a long, long time 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long, long time
