Why Did It Take So Long?
Wyatt Easterling and Paul Jefferson
Hey why did it take so long?
Why didn’t we say out loud?
Way back then
I had such a thing for you
I think we always knew
We were more than friends
I never held your hand or whispered in your ear
Except in a dream I didn’t dare to dream for years
Hey why did it take so long?
To finally light this flame
Between us
Oh let’s make up for everyday
We couldn’t run away
With this love
I had to lock my heart deep in my chest
I had to hold my tongue from the things I wish I’d said
Hey why did it take so long?
To finally light this flame
Between us
Oh let’s make up for everyday
We couldn’t run away
With this love
Hey why did it take so long?
Hey why did it take so long?
Hey why did it take so long?
