Why Did It Take So Long Lyrics
[Chorus]
Why did it take you so long to love me
Why did it take you so long
Baby I thought you would never love me
Why did it take you so long
I long for you for so long
Now longing's through I've got you so it's
[Verse 1]
So long to loneliness, so long to emptiness
So long to worry now
Troubles gone as long as I know you care
Waiting so long for you
Makes love even sweeter to share
[Chorus]
But why did it take you so long to love me
Why did it take you so long
Baby, I thought you would never love me
Why did it take you so long
I long for you for so long
Now longing's through I've got you so it's
[Refrain]
So long to loneliness, so long to emptiness
So long to worry now
Troubles gone as long as I know you care
Waiting so long for you
Makes love even sweeter to share
[Outro]
Why did it take you so long to love me
Why did it take you so long
Why did it take you so long to love me
Why did it take you so long
Why did it take you so long to love me
Why did it take you so long
