Lyrics The Overtones – The Longest Time

Dum dum dum
Oh oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time

If you said goodbye to me tonight

Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
That’s where you found me,
When you put your arms around me
I haven’t been there for the longest time

Oh oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time

I’m that voice you’re hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
Is how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn’t happened for the longest time

Maybe this won’t last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I’ve been hoping too hard
But I’ve come this far
And it’s more than I hoped for

I don’t care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that

Oh oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh (the longest) for the longest time
Oh oh oh the longest, for the longest time
