Long Time - Everlast

She was a hot blooded woman, he never saw it comin'

She hit em from the side that’s blind.

She never gave a warning, he woke up in the mornin'

Layin' there next to his bride.

He got a little crazy, when she had a little baby,

Cause it filled him with a fatherly pride.

But a couple years later, when their love starting fadin'

He hurt so bad he nearly died.

(Chorus)

It’s been a long time,

Since I was faithful,

It’s been a long time,

Since I was grateful,

It’s been a long time,

Since I could look you in the eye.

It’s been a long time

Since I was grateful…

She’s a mother with a daughter, sittin' by the water,

Because it’s better for her baby to breathe.

She’s gotta man sittin in prison,

Cause he didn’t want to listen,

Now he is sittin' waitin' on a reprieve

But she loves the little baby, but she get a lil crazy,

Cause it’s harder then she ever concieved

He left her all alone, now she’s doin it all alone

Cause she loves him like you wouldn’t believe

(Chorus)

He’s a friend and a lover

Husband and a brother, he’s always been a prodigal son

He get’s a lotta drama when he goes to see his momma

Cause he curses like a son of a gun.

He’s beggin to his lady, let him see his baby,

He swears that she’s the only one

He’s gotta a heart full sorrow, he’s livin for tomorrow,

And he’s sorry for the damage he’s done.

(Chorus)

It’s been a long time,

Since I was faithful,

It’s been a long time,

Since I was grateful,

It’s been a long time,

Since I could look you in the eye.

It’s been a long time

Since I was grateful…

(Chorus)

It’s been a long time,

Since I was faithful,

It’s been a long time,

Since I was grateful,

It’s been a long time,

Since I could look you in the eye.

It’s been a long time

Since I was grateful…

Grateful…
