It's Taking Me a Long Time

By Bruce Clifford

I cried myself to sleep last night
When my eyes opened you were gone
It’s not like we haven’t played this song before

The tears that feel right from my eyes
When I woke up there was no surprise
It’s like we’ve been through this a million times

It’s taking me a long time
To get my feet back on the ground
It’s taking me a long time
To come around

It’s taking me a long time
To wipe away those bad memories
It’s taking me a long time
A long time to believe

I cried myself to sleep last night
When I fell into a dream I knew something wasn’t right
I felt like I’ve heard this all before

It’s taking me a long time
To get my feet back on the ground
It’s taking me a long time
To come around

It’s taking me a long time
To wipe away those bad memories
It’s taking me a long time
A long time to believe
