Lyrics

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
