The Longest Time - The Overtones

If you say goodbye to me tonight

There would still be music left to write

What else could I do?

I’m so inspired by you

That hasn’t happened for the longest time

Once I thought my innocence was gone

Now I know that happiness goes on

That’s where you found me

When you put your arms around me

I haven’t been there for the longest time

1 — Oh, oh, oh, oh

For the longest time

It’s been so olng since I felt so right

Oh, oh, oh, oh

For the longest time

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 man 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

And I think that you should know that

I intend to hold you for the longest time

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Repeat 1 until fade
