bruce springsteen – long time comin’ (springsteen on broadway) lyrics
[verse 1]
out where the creek turn shallow and sandy
and the moon comes skimming away the stars
when the mesquite comes rushing over the hilltops
straight into my arms
straight into my arms
i’m ridin’ hard carrying a cache of roses
and a fresh map that i made
now i’m going to get birth naked and bury my old soul
and dance on its grave
i’m gonna dance on its grave
[chorus]
it’s been a long time comin’, my dear
it’s been a long time comin’, but now it’s here
now it’s here
[verse 2]
well, my daddy he was just a stranger
lived in a hotel downtown
when i was a kid, he was just somebody
somebody i’d see around
somebody i’d see around
now down below and pulling on my shirt
i got some kids of my own
if i had one wish in this god-forsaken world, kids
it’d be, your mistakes’ll be your own
yeah, your sins will be your own
[chorus]
it’s been a long time comin’, my dear
it’s been a long time comin’, but now it’s here
now it’s here
[verse 3]
out underneath the arms of c-ssiopeia
where the sword of orion sweeps
it’s me and you, rosie, crackling like crossed wires
and you breathing in your sleep
you breathing in your sleep
there’s just a spark of a campfire left burning
two kids in a sleeping bag beside
reach ‘neath your shirt, lay my hands across your belly and feel
another one kickin’ inside
and i ain’t gonna f-ck it up this time
[chorus]
oh, it’s been a long time comin’, my dear
oh, it’s been a long time comin’, but now it’s here
now it’s here
