The Long Time Now Lyrics - Twenty Twenty - The Essential T Bone Burnett - Burnett T-bone

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for the long time now 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for the long time now 

I can hear the footsteps 

Following behind me, trying to find me 

But when I turn around 

I can't see where the path goes 

Into the shadows 

Into the shadows 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for the long time now 

I can hear you breathing 

Whispering in my ear there is nothing to fear 

But when I turn around 

As I see the trees bow 

I only hear the wind blow 

By mistake I felt alone 

In my heart I've always known 

You'd be there to bring me home 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for a long, long time 

I've been waitin' for the long time now 

I've been waitin' for the long time now 

I've been waitin' for the long time now
