Long Time Coming
Sitting in the sunshine, that incandescent glow
Smoke rising from the ashtray, and this old stereo
Looking at the shoes by the door, that you never bought
And you never wore
Another four hours, and it’s all I can do
Not to jump in this old truck and go looking
But you’re a thousand miles away by now, and it’s clear to me
I was never meant to know what you were thinking
It’s been a long time coming
You walked in the door and I was never really sure you would stay
It’s been a long time coming
Were you ever really here at all, I can’t say
Down at the roadhouse, swimming in the sea
Of whiskey shots and this jukebox, singing lonesome melodies
Drink until my pockets are bare
Then stumble to the door and fumble down the stairs
It’s been a long time coming
You walked in the door and I was never really sure you would stay
It’s been a long time coming
Were you ever really here at all, I can’t say
It’s been a long time coming
You walked in the door and I was never really sure you would stay
It’s been a long time coming
Were you ever really here at all, I can’t say
