Long Long Time
Endless Love's Journey: Cory Wells' Long Long Time Meaning
Lyrics
Love will abide
Love is enduring
Take things in stride
Face challenges calmly
Sounds like good advice
Seems like sensible advice
But there's no one at my side
Feeling alone without a companion
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
Time heals emotional wounds silently
That's what someone told me
Recalling advice received
But I don't know what it means
Uncertain about the advice's meaning
'Cause I've done everything I know
Exhausted all efforts
To try and make you mine
Attempts to win love
And I think I'm gonna love you
Believes in a lasting love
For a long long time
Expressing commitment to love for an extended period
Caught in my fears
Trapped in anxieties
Blinking back the tears
Suppressing tears
I can't say you hurt me
Denying the pain caused by the person
When you never let me near
Unable to get emotionally close
And I never drew one response from you
No emotional response from the person
All the while you fell all over girls you never knew
Observing the person's attention to others
'Cause I've done everything I know
Exhausted all efforts (repeated)
To try and make you mine
Continued efforts to win love (repeated)
And I think it's gonna hurt me
Anticipating emotional pain
For a long long time
Expecting prolonged suffering
Wait for the day you'll go away
Awaiting the inevitable departure
Knowing that you warned me
Recalling a warning about the consequences
Of the price I'd have to pay
Acknowledging the expected cost
And life's full of flaws
Life is imperfect
Who knows the cause?
Uncertain about the reasons for challenges
Living in the memory of a love that never was
Living with the memory of an unrealized love
'Cause I've done everything I know
Exhausted all efforts (repeated)
To try and change your mind
Attempting to change the person's perspective
And I think I'm gonna miss you
Anticipating the pain of separation
For a long long time
Expecting a prolonged sense of loss
'Cause I've done everything I know
Exhausted all efforts (repeated)
To try and make you mine
Continued efforts to win love (repeated)
And I think I'm gonna love you
Believes in a lasting love (repeated)
For a long long time
Expressing commitment to love for an extended period (repeated)
