I didn't ask for this,
|
I couldn't ask for that,
|
I wouldn't ask for any change in plans.
|
Am I ever right?
|
When you're such a brat,
|
I feel much better in your hands.
|
|
Try to take your word,
|
I want to take you down,
|
You never caught me lying.
|
I'm trying not to shout,
|
Wanna work it out,
|
I've been so long denying.
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
Keeping your secrets for too long,
|
Baby you ain't half of what you used to be.
|
In this dim October sky,
|
I've got no more tears left to cry,
|
And I'm finally learning,
|
You can't be too strong.
|
|
I'm a long time gone.
|
|
When you understand,
|
There's no one truth,
|
And we're three-thousand miles apart.
|
Try and act your age,
|
And you're a flaming youth,
|
You seek the end,
|
But never start.
|
|
If I'm a man,
|
Do I have the strengh,
|
To change what I'm becoming?
|
I've been such a fool,
|
Didn't want to lose,
|
It's been a long time coming.
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone.
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone.
|
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone,
|
I'm a long time gone.
