The Longest Time - amarcord

Oh, oh, oh

For the longest time

Oh, oh, oh

For the longest

I’m that voice you’re hearing in the hall

And the greatest miracle of all

Is how I need you

And how you needed me too

That hasn’t happened for the longest time

Maybe this won’t last very long

But you feel so right

And I could be wrong

Maybe I’ve been hoping too hard

But I’ve gone this far

And it’s more than I hoped for

Who knows how much further we’ll go on

Maybe I’ll be sorry when you’re gone

I’ll take my chances

I forgot how nice romance is

I haven’t been there for the longest time

I had second thoughts at the start

I said to myself

Hold on to your heart

Now I know the woman that you are

You’re wonderful so far

And it’s more than I hoped for

I don’t care what consequence it brings

I have been a fool for lesser things

I want you so bad

I think you ought to know that

I intend to hold you for the longest time
