Me First and The Gimme Gimmes - The Longest Time lyrics

[Originally by Billy Joel] if you'd say goodbye to me tonight there would still be music left to write what else could I do I'm so inspired by you that hasn't happened for the longest time Once I thought my innocence was gone now I know that happiness goes on that's where you found me when you put your arms around me I haven't been there for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh! for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh! for the longest time I'm that voice your hearing in the hall and the greatest miracle of all is how I need you and how you needed me too that hasn't happened for the longest time maybe this won't last very long but you feel so right and I could be wrong maybe I've been hoping too hard I've gone this far and it's more than I hoped for Who knows how much further we'll go on maybe I'll be sorry when your gone I'll take my chances I forgot how nice romance is I haven't been there for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh! for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh! for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh! for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh! for the longest time whoa-oh-oh-oh...! Thank you, Thank you very much I'd like to take this opportunity to remind everyone, that right now there are hundereds of thousands of people all over the world
