Long, Long Time Songtext

Love will abide Take things in stride Sounds like good advice But there's no one at my side And time washes clean Love's wounds unseen That's what someone told me But I don't know what it means "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 Caught in my fears Blinking back the tears I can't say you hurt me When you never let me near And I never drew One response from you All the while you fell All over girls you never knew Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think it's gonna hurt me For a long, long time I'm waiting for the day, you'll go away Yes I know you warned me Of the price I'd have to pay Oh life's full of loss Tell me who knows the cost We're living in the memory Of the love that never was Cause I've done everything I know Woman to try and change your mind Well I hope I'm gonna 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.
