Lyrics Long Time - Everlast

Long Time

She was a hot blooded woman, he never saw it comin'
She hit em from the side that’s blind.
She never gave a warning, he woke up in the mornin'
Layin' there next to his bride.
He got a little crazy, when she had a little baby,
Cause it filled him with a fatherly pride.
But a couple years later, when their love starting fadin'
He hurt so bad he nearly died.
(Chorus)
It’s been a long time,
Since I was faithful,
It’s been a long time,
Since I was grateful,
It’s been a long time,
Since I could look you in the eye.
It’s been a long time
Since I was grateful…
She’s a mother with a daughter, sittin' by the water,
Because it’s better for her baby to breathe.
She’s gotta man sittin in prison,
Cause he didn’t want to listen,
Now he is sittin' waitin' on a reprieve
But she loves the little baby, but she get a lil crazy,
Cause it’s harder then she ever concieved
He left her all alone, now she’s doin it all alone
Cause she loves him like you wouldn’t believe
(Chorus)
He’s a friend and a lover
Husband and a brother, he’s always been a prodigal son
He get’s a lotta drama when he goes to see his momma
Cause he curses like a son of a gun.
He’s beggin to his lady, let him see his baby,
He swears that she’s the only one
He’s gotta a heart full sorrow, he’s livin for tomorrow,
And he’s sorry for the damage he’s done.
(Chorus)
It’s been a long time,
Since I was faithful,
It’s been a long time,
Since I was grateful,
It’s been a long time,
Since I could look you in the eye.
It’s been a long time
Since I was grateful…
(Chorus)
It’s been a long time,
Since I was faithful,
It’s been a long time,
Since I was grateful,
It’s been a long time,
Since I could look you in the eye.
It’s been a long time
Since I was grateful…
Grateful…
