…your end left mine
[Chorus]
And it's been so long
Since you looked me in the eye
Since you said things are all wrong…
…been so long)
[Chorus]
And it's been so long
Since you looked me in the eye
Since you said things are all wrong…
…been so long
(Since you looked me in the eye)
And it's been so long
(Since you looked me in the eye)
And it's been so…

…light on my face
Constriction consists when I breathe
Fear I'm losin' my space
[Chorus:]
And it's been so long
Since I heard…
…you say
And it's been so long
Since I heard you say
You don't trust me, trust me, trust me, trust me
You don't trust me, trust me…
…[Chorus:]
And it's been so long
Since I heard you say
And it's been so long
Since I heard you say
And it's been so long
Since I…

…song, but it's mine this time
Yeah it's just another love song, but it's you who said
And it's been so long since, I've seen you…
…happy
And it's been so long since, I've seen you smile
The days they feel long/ Why am I so tired?
I sleep all day when/ I can't…
…get inspired
And it's been so long since, I've seen you happy
And it's been so long since, I've seen you smile
I wish I could make…

…[Verse 1]
My body's achin'
My ship's left the shore
Your eyes are waiting
My knees on the floor
[Chorus]
And it's been so long…
Since I had a friend
And it's been so long
Why can't we just pretend?
[Verse 2]
And I feel your laughter
Your warm, open stare…
And I'm chasin' after
Somethin' that isn't there
[Chorus]
And it's been so long
Since I had a friend
And it's been so long
Why can't…

…little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend…
Too little things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my…
…things they go my way
I'm back together again
I'm staring in the mirror
And it's been so long
Since I've seen you my friend
Too little…

…won't let you fall apart, not again
And it's been so long, just barely holding on
We're coming out strong
Hey, you're smiling again…
…you fall apart, no never again
And it's been so long, just barely holding on
We're coming out strong
Follow me and I'll take you…
…somewhere lighter than you've been
Come with me, I won't let you fall apart, never again
And it's been so long, just barely…

In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear the song that was playing on the radio
Pull up…
…tonight
In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear…
…the song that was playing on the radio
When I saw your face tonight
In your eyes I could see the light
And it's been so long I know
But I can still hear…

I'm driving home for Christmas
I can't wait to see those faces
I'm driving home for Christmas
Yea I'm moving down that line
And it's…
…been so long
But I will be there
To sing this song
To pass the time away
Driving in my car
Christmas
Gonna take some time
Top…
…can't wait to see those faces
I'm driving home for Christmas, yea
Well I'm moving down that line
And it's been so long…

…feeling weighted
And it's been so long since I've been faded
I'm not trying to make this complicated
I'm proud…
For just a moment to escape it
I miss you
I'm feeling weighted
And it's been so long since I've been faded
I'm not trying to make this complicated
I'm…
For just a moment to escape it
I miss you
I'm feeling weighted
And it's been so long since I've been faded
I'm not trying to make this complicated
I'm proud of the life that I've created
I hate you…

…me to go home
I don't wanna go home
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know where I belong
Now my reflection is a stranger tagging along
And it's…
…could've turned around
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know where I belong
Now my reflection is a stranger tagging along
And it's been so…
Now my reflection is a stranger tagging along
And it's been so long since I felt home
Now every option is a new way that I'll go…

…how your heart's been hurting
[Chorus: Alainite]
And it's been so long since the summer sun has been shining on us
Damn you're…
…: Alainite]
And it's been so long since the summer sun has been shining on us
Damn you're gorgeous
It's been so long since I've…
…the sunset fade into the night
We watch the sunset fade into the night
You know I wish I could stay right by your side
[Chorus: Alainite]
And it's…

…aren't quite like we used to be you and me
But we've got no scars and it's been so long my love is strong
Strong…
…you need me, baby I know
It gets so hard
Sometimes we aren't quite like we used to be you and me
But we've got no scars and it's…
…know that it gets
It gets so hard
Sometimes we aren't quite like we used to be you and me
But we've got no scars and it's been so…

North and South or East and West
And if you turn away... Just don't let me know
'Cuz we're having fun tonight
And it's been so long…
…'Cuz we're having fun tonight
And it's been so long since we felt like this
We're gonna hold it tight
We all know…
…having fun tonight
And it's been so long since we felt like this
We're gonna hold it tight
We all know this moment won't last…

…(Chorus)
Cause it's been so long
That I'm missing satisfaction
Can't wait to hear the sound of their voices tonight
And it's…
…long
That I'm missing satisfaction
Can't wait to hear the sound of their voice tonight
And it's been so long
I've been missing…
…to hear the sound of their voice tonight
And it's been so long
I've been missing her reaction
Can't wait to hear the sound of her voice tonight…

…a love it was, it was
The reason, the reason, the reason

And even, if you don't care
Gurl it's been so long! that I have been so deep in love
And it's…
The reason, the reason, the reason

And even, if you don't care
Gurl it's been so long! that I have been so deep in love
And it's been…
