lyrics

I grew up in a small town, no one knew much more than oil and cows
In the middle of nowhere, I figured, I gotta get out of this place somehow
With a couple of friends and my guitar we could find a van and hit the road
Trying too hard too make it happen, that’s how the story always goes

You thought it’d been a long time coming
(Such a long time by yourself)
You thought It’d been a long time running
(Such a long time by yourself)

Now I’m older but no Wiser, unless you count the bottles on the shelf
Don’t get me wrong I never lost hope, no I couldn’t do this by myself
Get the boys back together, we’re gonna make an album which lasts forever
Now that things seem to be looking up I’ve found a place to rest my cup

I thought it’d been a long time coming
(Such a long time by myself)
I thought I’d been a long time running
(Such a long time by myself)
I thought it’d been a long time coming
(Such a long time by myself)
