Took So Long

Snow falling and the trees are still
Snow piling up on my window sill
I got the message you were coming home
Why did you leave so long ago

I forgot those lines I memorized
Took so long to meet you
When I found something in those eyes
Took so long to meet you
I’m tired of feeling cold
Best put an end to that show
Everything changed that day …

What you didn’t say on the phone
All came out on the car ride home
When we met that day
We were so alone
So can you stay?
When you come on home

It’s funny how things worked out this way
Took so long to meet you
Now today’s a better day
Took so long to meet you
Life takes a toll
Better start thinking about letting go
Everything changed that day …
