In A Long Time Lyrics - Rainbirds

enjoy yourself 

like a man 

girl 

enjoy yourself 

like a boy 

just like a woman can 

yeah 

in the sun 

-sun is the word- 

like the bow of a boat 

in the water where you float 

all the wet 

all the foam where you lay 

like a slow damp day in the heat 

be a cat in the shade of a tree 

or a leaf in the wind 

you are free 

you are safe 

as you stride 

and you stroll 

you are in control 

and still 

here with me 

when the dark falls 

when the dark falls 

it has been a long long time 

not a sound not a word not a song 

we hadn`t heard 

in a long time 

not then 

but before 

we have been longing for 

in a long time 

uhm 

uhm 

uhm 

all these things 

and all these other things 

to be different in the world 

of a girl 

like a man 

and a boy 

just like a woman can 

with a girl like me 

on a sunday 

the scent of a hot day - gold 

skin 

tip of the tongue 

the beginning and the end 

in the blink of an eye 

bird in the sky 

yeah 

-bird is the word 

bird bird is the word- 

you are free 

you are safe 

as you stride 

and you stroll 

you are in control 

and still 

here with me 

when the dark falls 

when the dark falls
