Lyrics Long Time Looking - Helen Reddy

Long Time Looking

Everybody's here, as a couple
Everybody's got someone
For every locked-up heart
There's someone with a key
So, someone's got to open me

I think I'll be a long time looking
Looking for that long time one
So, I'll take each night as it comes
Bakin' cakes and gettin' crumbs
But I'll keep right on looking
'Cause you've been a long time gone

Maybe It's because I'm too special
Or maybe, I'm not special enough
Did I push too hard
Or did I turn away
Or did I over-sleep that day

I think I'll be a long time looking
Looking for that long time one
'Cause when you've had the very best
All there is, is all the rest
So, I'll keep right on looking
'Cause you've been a long time gone
