Blue Rodeo - How Long lyrics
[Blue Rodeo - How Long lyrics]
I hear you talking everywhere
Words on the loudspeakers hanging in the air
Everywhere and I remember the words
You told me too this town's full of losers
Trying to get a piece of you
You really think that's true
How long will it take
'Til you open up your eyes?
I've been gone for years
You never even realised how long? How long?
In a corner of the world on election day
You watched your star shatter then fade away
Too many wasted days
With your eyes wide open a hand on the wheel
You looked back hard trying to
Remember just how it feels how does it feel
How long will it take
'Til you open up your eyes?
I've been gone for years
You never even realised how long? How long?
What does it take to let you know?
It's all coming down don't waste my time
You used to walk down the street
Like the chosen one
Everybody got your blessing now they're gone
Where have they gone
Did I ever tell you what I thought?
Of what you did for me?
Some things cost too much
Even when they're free
Even when they're free how long will it take
'Til you open up your eyes?
I've been gone for years
You never even realised how long? How long?
Words on the loudspeakers hanging in the air
Everywhere and I remember the words
You told me too this town's full of losers
Trying to get a piece of you
You really think that's true
How long will it take
'Til you open up your eyes?
I've been gone for years
You never even realised how long? How long?
In a corner of the world on election day
You watched your star shatter then fade away
Too many wasted days
With your eyes wide open a hand on the wheel
You looked back hard trying to
Remember just how it feels how does it feel
How long will it take
'Til you open up your eyes?
I've been gone for years
You never even realised how long? How long?
What does it take to let you know?
It's all coming down don't waste my time
You used to walk down the street
Like the chosen one
Everybody got your blessing now they're gone
Where have they gone
Did I ever tell you what I thought?
Of what you did for me?
Some things cost too much
Even when they're free
Even when they're free how long will it take
'Til you open up your eyes?
I've been gone for years
You never even realised how long? How long?
