Billy Joel The Longest Time Lyrics

Oh
oh
oh
oh
For the longest time
Oh
oh
oh
For the longest

If you said goodbye to me to night
there would still be music left to write
What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Once I thought my innocense was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
that's where you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time

Oh
oh
oh
oh
For the longest time
Oh
oh
oh
For the longest

I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
Is how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time
May be this won't last every 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 for there we'll go on
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is
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 are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for
I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time

Oh
oh
oh
oh
For the longest time
Oh
oh
oh
For the longest time
Oh
oh
oh
For the longest time
Oh
oh
oh
For the longest time
