I have been down this road before

And each time I run when I should walk

Diving too deep when I can't swim

Always asking what could have been



I held my heart out in my hands

And you pull me down each time I stand

And I've tried to fly away from you

I'd rather be alone than love you like I do



And so they say that time's a healer

Maybe it's about time that I start

But I've found time don't make it any easier

The longer we're apart



Why is every body always more afraid to live than die

They seem to have the strength to fail but not the will to try

I've never been like this and I'm not about to start

The part of me I miss I'll find now that we're apart



I'm going down this road once more

And each time I run when I should walk

When you reach the end just start again

Never look back at what could have been



And now I know that time's a healer

Maybe it's about time that I start

But I've found time it don't make it any easier

The longer the longer we're apart



Oh baby wont you sing it to me

Oh the longer baby

Oh oh yeah
