Long Time
It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
Sail on, on a distant highway
I've got to keep on chasin' a dream
I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something I could say.
Well I'm takin my time, I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me after I've been gone
And I take what I find, I don't want no more
Its just outside of your front door.
It's been such a long time;
It's been such a long time.
Well I get so lonely when I am without you
But in my mind, deep in my mind
I can't forget about you
Good times,
and faces that remind me
I'm tryin' to forget your name and leave it all behind me
You're comin back to find me.
Well I'm taking my time, I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me after I've been gone
And I take what I find, I dont want no more
Its just outside of your front door.
It's been such a long time;
It's been such a long time.
It's been such a long time, I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
Theres a long road, I've gotta stay in time with
I've got to keep on chasin' that dream, though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it.
Well I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' along
Takin' my time, just movin' along
Takin' my time, takin' my time.
"Foreplay/Long Time" was written by Tom Scholz, the leading force in the band "Boston". Their title album, released in 1976, was the biggest selling debut album by any artist up to that time.
