The Longest Time

(Doom doom doom)
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time

If you said goodbye to me tonight (whoo, ooh ooh ooh)
There would still be music left to write (ah ah ah)
What else could I do? (Ah ah ah)
I'm so inspired by you (ah ah ah)
That hasn't happened for the longest time

Once I thought my innocence was gone (whoo, ooh ooh ooh)
Now I know that happiness goes on (ah ah ah)
That's where you found me (ah ah ah)
When you put your arms around me (ah ah ah)
I haven't been there for the longest time

Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time

I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall (whoo, ooh ooh ooh)
And the greatest miracle of all (ah ah ah)
Is how I need you (ah ah ah)
And how you needed me too (ah ah ah)
That hasn't happened for the longest time

Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've gone this far
And it's more than I hoped for

Who knows how much further we'll go on (whoo, ooh ooh ooh)
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone (ah ah ah)
I'll take my chances (ah ah ah)
I forgot how nice romance is (ah ah ah)
I haven't been there for the longest time

I had second thoughts at the start
I said to myself
"Hold on to your heart"
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for

I don't care what consequence it brings (whoo, ooh ooh ooh)
I have been a fool for lesser things (ah ah ah)
I want you so bad (ah ah ah)
I think you ought to know that (ah ah ah)
I intend to hold you for the longest time

Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh (for the longest)
For the longest time
Whoa, oh oh oh...
