Took A Long Time Lyrics

Carla Dal Forno Took A Long Time

We're a long way from home
It took a long time for us to reach here
And now that we've stretched out in the grass
I want to remain like this the whole year

When it gets late the park grows cold
I shiver but make no move to leave here
It hasn't been said yet and I'm not sure how
I've come a long way and I met you here

And that's how it starts
The daylight fading fast
You sit so close
Yet still so far from my arms

So how would I feel if you walked on
I've probably mistaken everyone here
The evening is closing in around us now
Can we just stay like this we're so near

And that's how it starts
The daylight fading fast
You sit so close
Yet still so far from my arms

It took a long time for us to reach here
How does it feel to wait so long
Part of me still feels so unreal here
So tell me that I've not got this wrong
