lyrics

6) IT TOOK A LONG TIME

It took a long time to get over you,
There wasn’t anything that I could do,
I couldn’t rush it while it worked itself through,
It took a long time to get over you,

Just when I thought that I had it licked
Some little trigger would come and stick
It’s finger in the wound,
Would mock and say “too soon,”
It took a long time to get over you.

Don’t know if I’m ready to run into you,
But I no longer want to hide,
The weight and the panic no longer swell
With the force of the ocean’s tide,

I can breathe again, and I can smile
But I assure you it took a really long while,
And I just want to tell you that the grieving is through,
But it took a long time to get over you,

And I’m wondering if you’re still in knots,
What you’ve been thinking,
If I’m still in your thoughts,
If you’ve gotten through the unbearable pain,
I wouldn’t mind seeing you again,

It took a long time to get over you
Time heals all wounds, well that’s partially true,
But I must confess that I still think of you,
Cause it took a long time to get over you.
