For the Longest Time Songtext

von Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

CHORUs:
Oh,oh,oh,oh
For the longest time
Oh,oh,oh
For the longest (time)

If you said 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 how you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time

CHORUS

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 much 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 woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for

I don't care what consenquence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that I
Intend to hold you for the longest time

CHORUS
