For the longest time
For the longest time
If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time
For the longest time
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Maybe this won't last very long
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
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 haven't been there for the longest time
I had second thoughts at the start
Now I know the woman that you are
And it's more than I hoped for
I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
