too long

[Verse 1]

Wasn't this supposed to be fun?

But somewhere along the way it got heavy

Since I saw you from across the lawn, light as the day

You said I told you what you wanted to hear

Well, you might be right but I meant every word

I whispered into your ear, besides it did me the same

[Pre-Chorus]

Before, I could go completely alone for days at a time

Without getting lonely

But I guess you left a hole in my chest

You carved yourself a spot and now I left it open

[Chorus]

It's been too long

I need to hear your sweet voice again

Your sweet voice again

It's been too long

I need to hear your sweet voice again

Your sweet voice again

[Verse 2]

Well, I hated that I made you cry

You wear your heart on your sleeve

And now you wanna use it to wipe the tears outta your eyes

You're getting salt in the wound

I wish you'd credit me for how hard I tried

'Cause some day you'll find someone who loves you better

But first you gotta learn how to fly on your own

[Pre-Chorus]

Oooh, you had too many glasses

You say you don't remember that conversation

But I think you know how the saying goes

About the words that come out in that kinda state

You said stay, so I stayed quiet

For once in my life I knew what I had to do

[Chorus]

It's been too long

I need to hear your sweet voice again

Your sweet voice again

It's been too long

I need to hear your sweet voice again

Your sweet voice again

[Outro]

Wasn't this supposed to be fun?

But somewhere along the way it got heavy

Since I saw you from across the lawn, light as the day
