It's Been a Long Time |
| It’s been a long time |
| Since I opened the window |
| Next to my bed |
| Since I spent the whole day |
| Just feelin' the sun shift on my head |
| Since I’ve dug my feet in |
| Into the edge of this continent |
| It’s been a long, long time |
| It’s been a long time |
| Home is not just where I am anymore |
| I know how to get there |
| And it’s where I wanna be |
| It’s where the river kisses the ocean |
| Where I feel small |
| I feel blessed |
| And I feel like me |
| It’s been a long, long time |
| And I can’t remember |
| When all this runnin' started |
| But it took about eight years |
| For something in me to slip |
| I gave all I could give |
| But then I just kept givin' |
| 'Til I woke up one day to find |
| My body had up and left |
| My body, well she up and left |
| Been a long, long time |
| It’s been a long time |
| Home is not just where I am anymore |
| I know how to get there |
| It’s where I wanna be |
| It’s where the river kisses the ocean |
| Where I feel small |
| I feel blessed |
| And I feel like me |
| Been a long, long time |
| It’s been a long time |
| A long, long time |
| 'Cause I ain’t no good to you sober |
| If I just medicate my life |
| So I’m askin' for some help here |
| Would you help me get level? |
| To help me to get right |
| Been a long time |
| It’s been a long, long time |
| It’s been a long time |
