Long Long Time
William Redwood
There is so much I don't know
I've tried not to show
Every seam that comes undone
Would it matter if I'd run?
'Cause I've waited a long long time
To remember all that you've done for me
And I'm drawing a long long line
In between the dark and the light
It doesn't matter how hard I try to believe
That you'll never run from me
Spin the hands of time, spin the hands of time
Am I written in your heart?
Was it stronger at the start?
Is my failure bitter still?
Could you love me?
Say you will
'Cause I've waited a long long time
To remember all that you've done for me
And I'm drawing a long long line
In between the dark and the light
It doesn't matter how hard
I try to believe that you'll never run from me
Spin the hands of time, spin the hands of time
Look at the stones washed on the shore
They never question what's less and what's more
Nor do the trees, tossed in the wind
Wonder if they have a love they can give
Look to the Sun, reach for the light
Hold to the earth til the day that they die
Hand in the grave, crumble and cry
Seeds to remember this garden of life
Where does it go, where does it hide?
All of the hurt that you're holding inside?
Searching for hope, made a mistake
Everyone shatters and everyone breaks
I'm so afraid you'll turn your head
Leave me unwanted and wishing for death
Tell me your dreams, show me your mind
Why can't I be what you're hoping to find?
Call me your love, call me your home
'Cause I wouldn't last if you left me alone
Make me a man you could admire
Make me your hunger and make me your fire
I could be cruel and I could be kind
I could remember the things that you like
You can be right and I can be wrong
Please give me space where I can belong
Please give me space where I can belong
Please give me space where I can belong
Please give me space where I can belong
