Verse 1:
Every single night,
when I go sleep and I turn off the lights,
I always think of you.
And every morning,
when I get up my heart is groaning,
another day without you.
I know and I see
Now when the loneliness has found a friend in me.
All the mistakes I have made.
The day we said our goodbyes,
I remember with the tears in my eyes.
I promised that I wouldn't cry.
But the pain is too big for me...
Chorus:
What's taking you so long? I feel like I've been waiting a whole lifetime.
What's taking you so long? I'm running, I'm running out of time.
What's taking you so long, I feel like I've been waiting a whole lifetime.
What's taking, taking you so long? I'm afraid, the time will never, be on my side.
Verse 2:
Try to understand,
I have done things I didn't mean.
Oh no, it wasn't me.
Now look at me,
you're the one I always believed.
You were everything.
Maybe I can live my life,
But there's so much pain without you by my side.
I feel it all the time.
If there's a day we'll meet again,
I'll pray the god to make things right.
And you get my soul to take.
But the pain is too big for me...
Chorus:
What's taking you so long? I feel like I've been waiting a whole lifetime.
What's taking you so long? I'm running, I'm running out of time.
What's taking you so long, I feel like I've been waiting a whole lifetime.
What's taking, taking you so long? I'm afraid, the time will never, be on my side.
