[Verse 1]
How does it take so long?
To get on by?
Singin' it over and over
Swept through the tide
On the street like a lonely dog
Kept from the table
Hold no quarter
No big sky, no fine fables
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why does it take so long
To feel?
Tell me why
[Verse 2]
Stuck in a parking lot
Where's your motor?
Seems like all you've got
Is what you've left beside her
And everything you need
Is out of reach
So take the slow and lonely river
To the sea
[Chorus]
Tell mе why
Why does it take so long
To feel?
Tell mе why
[Bridge]
Holding on, never gone
Understanding, beside you
It's not right
You're holding on so long
Years are gone, never know
What the world did to [?] you
It's not why
Let you sink so long
It's not right
Let it go
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why does it take so long
To feel?
Tell me why
