Such a very long time (s macdonald)
It saddens me to see it go 'cus I've been waiting such a long time
And I already miss it so because it's only been a short while
It's walked away it's disappeared but I've been waiting such a long time
It's gone away for good I fear and it's only been a short while

And I've been waiting such a long time
And I've been waiting such a long time

Such a very long time (time)

My only chance in many years and I'm about to lose it now
I'm unaccustomed to the tears that want to flow out
I feel like I'm an amateur playing in the major leagues
I always feel so insecure and all I want to do is scream
And I've been waiting such a long time
And I've been waiting such a long time

Such a very long time (time)

My face is white and my shoes are black and all the rest of me is gray
And I can't get my colors back because it's thrown them all away
I want it to come back right now because it's only been a short while
I lie awake and wonder how I could have waited such a long time
And I've been waiting such a long time
And I've been waiting such a long time

Such a very long time (time)
Such a very long time (time)
