Lyrics
It's been such a long time I think I should be goin', yeah And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin' Sail on, on a distant highway I've got to keep on chasin' a dream, yeah I've gotta be on my way Wish there was something I could say

Well, I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on You'll forget about me after I've been gone And I take what I find, I don't want no more It's just outside of your front door

Ah yeah, it's been such a long time. it's been such a long time

Well, I get so lonely when I am without you But in my mind, deep in my mind I can't forget about you Good times, and faces that remind me, yeah I'm tryin' to forget your name and leave it all behind me You're comin' back to find me

Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on You'll forget about me after I've been gone And I take what I find, I don't want no more It's just outside of why our front door, yeah, yeah, yeah

It's been such a long time. it's been such a long time

Yeah It's been such a long time, I think I should be goin', yeah And time dosnt wait for me, it keeps on rollin' There's a long road, I've gotta stay in time with, yeah I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, though I may never find it I'm always just behind it

Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along (Takin' my time) oh, just movin' along (Takin' my time) ah, just takin' my time (Takin' my time) oh, yeah (Takin' my time) oh, oh (Takin' my time) (Takin' my time) (Takin' my time) (Takin' my time) (Takin' my time)
