Why’d It Take So Long

If you couldn't tell by now
You need to save your time
Oh, I wasn't lookin' for nothing like that
So why did I change my mind?
I loosened up my grip
I paid my fare for the ride, babe
Like a storm that's headed to the coast

So why did it take so long?
I can see the Sun coming around again
I can feel my feet tripping over
Everything
You left in my way
Ya live and ya learn babe
But, I learned everything from you
I call and you answer
Thinking speaking always gets to you
But I've been fine, baby
I've been living without you for a while
Now

I don't need all your reasons
Or your delusions to save me
I can see the Sun coming around again
I can feel my feet tripping over
Everything you left in my way
I can see the Sun coming around again
I can feel the heat burning the
Ground below me now
Why, why'd it take so long?
Why did it take so long?
