Gladd Lyrics - Pretty Little Head - Nellie Mckay

It's been a long time coming 

But I know you are the one 

Here at home at last the days have ceased 

It's been a long time coming 

And I know we've just begun 

All the pain has passed and there is peace 

If the breath was warm and tender 

Now the breath becomes a yawn 

And I've been returned to sender 

And I'm better since I'm gone

It's been a long time coming 

But I know you are the one 

Here with time erased I'm at my best 

It's been a long time coming 

And I know we've just begun 

Without a pretty face I can just rest 

But the march is still ongoing 

I can hear the drummers roll 

And it can't show signs of slowing 

It is too dear 

It's my soul

It's been a long time coming 

But I know you are the one 

Here at home at last the days have ceased 

It's been a long time coming 

And I know we've just begun 

All the pain has passed and there is peace
