It's been a long time a comin'
And I have to carry on
It's been a long time a comin'
But now you're gone
Oh, look at me
Sittin' starin' at the rain
Knowin' the days that we once new
Won't ever come again
Well it seems too strange to really be
So I pinch myself and I find
Whew, yeah, it's me
It's been a long time a comin'
And I have to carry on
It's been a long time a comin'
But now you're gone
And it's too late to turn
Back all the clocks in town
It's too late take the x
From yesterday
Now the die is cast
Nothin' happens in the past
So I think I'll take a walk
Out in the rain
Hmmm, here I go
Walkin' down a street in time
Never knowin' though I'm tryin' to keep myself in rhyme
Just a while has now become too long
Consequently to you I can say
Goodbye, So long, yeah!
It's been a long time a comin'
And I have to carry on
It's been a long time a comin'
But now you're gone
(Here we go Rust)
And it's too late to turn
Back all the clocks in town
It's too late to take the x
From yesterday
Now the die is cast
Nothin' happens in the past
So I think I'll take a walk
Out in the rain
Hmmm, here I go
Walkin' down a street in time
Never knowin' though I'm tryin' to keep myself in rhyme
Just a while has now become too long
Consequently to you I can say
Goodbye, So long, yeah!
It's been a long time a comin'
And I have to carry on
It's been a long time a comin'
But now you're gone
