Blackmore’s Night - Long Long Time lyrics

Love will abide, take things in stride
Sounds like good advice
But there's no one at my side
And time washes clean, love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me
But, I don't know what it means

'Cause, I've done everything I know to
Try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long
Long time

Caught in my fears, blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me
When you never let me near
And I never drew, one response from you
All the while you fell
Over girls you never knew
'Cause, I've done everything I know to
Try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long
Long time

Wait for the day, you'll go away
Knowing that you warned me of the
Price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws
Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was

'Cause, I've done everything I know to
Try and change your mind
And I think I'm gonna miss you for a long
Long time

Yes, I've done everything I know to
Try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long
Long time
