Lyrics

Winterlong

[Verse 1] I waited for you winterlong You seem to be where I belong It's all illusion anyway If things should ever turn out wrong And all the love we have is gone It won't be easy on that day [Bridge] Waiting to follow Through the dreamlight of your way Is not so easy for me now Half the time has passed away (Sha-la-la-la) Things we thought of yesterday (Sha-la-la-la) Come back now, come back now, whoa-oh [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Waiting to follow Through the dreamlight of your way Is not so easy for me now Half the time has passed away (Sha-la-la-la) Things we thought of yesterday (Sha-la-la-la) Come back now, come back now, whoa-oh [Outro] I waited for you winterlong You seem to be where I belong I waited for you winterlong You seem to be where I belong I waited for you winterlong You seem to be where I belong
