MINDY MCCREADY - Long, Long Time lyrics

Love will abide

Take things in stride

Sounds like good advice

But there's no one at my side

And time washes clean

Love's wounds unseen

That's what someone told me

But I don't know what it means

'Cause I've done everything I know

To try and make you mine

And I think I'm gonna love you

For a long, long time

Caught in my fears

Blinking back the tears

I can't say you hurt me

When you never let me near

And I never drew

One response from you

All the while you fell

All over girls you never knew

'Cause I've done everything I know

To try and make you mine

And I think it's gonna hurt me

For a long, long time

Wait for the day

You go away

Knowing that you warned me

Of the price I'd have to pay

And life's full of loss

Who knows the cost

Living in a memory

Of a love that never was

'Cause I've done everything I know

To try and change your mind

And I think I'm gonna miss you

For a long, long time

Yes, I've done everything I know

To try an make you mine

And I think I'm gonna love you

For a long, long time
