Forever Took Too Long
I’ve been trying, God knows how long,
to piece my heart back together.
Now here I am back in our hometown,
you never answered my letters.
Is your dad still workin’? And how’s your mom?
We haven’t talked since last December.
I know it’s been some time since I’ve been gone,
but you said you’d wait forever.
I guess forever took too long.
I guess I shouldn’t have left you, hangin’ on.
I guess you couldn’t wait, my leavin was wrong.
I guess forever took too long.
Was I the only one who thought this would last?
If I was wrong then you can tell me.
Now I don’t mean to be living in the past,
I just can’t believe you don’t love me.
How can you stand there and say the love has died,
you know I can still remember,
how you turned from me with tears in your eyes,
and swore you’d love me forever.
I guess forever took too long.
I guess I shouldn’t have left you, hangin’ on.
I guess you couldn’t wait, my leavin was wrong.
I guess forever took too long.
