T Bone Burnett - The Long Time Now lyrics

I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for the long time now I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for the long time now I can hear the footsteps Following behind me, trying to find me But when I turn around I can't see where the path goes Into the shadows Into the shadows I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for the long time now I can hear you breathing Whispering in my ear there is nothing to fear But when I turn around As I see the trees bow I only hear the wind blow By mistake I felt alone In my heart I've always known You'd be there to bring me home I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for a long, long time I've been waitin' for the long time now I've been waitin' for the long time now I've been waitin' for the long time now
