ian hunter & the rant band - long time lyrics
they called me the idiot
my hands were on fire
blood flowed from my fingers every time i pressed the wires
exiled to the attic, out of harm’s way
i hit that bow and arrow till i hit the hay
i got a suitcase full of energy
i’m following the wind, old enough to know better young enough to join in
lived opposite a graveyard, you could hear the hookers cry:
“you never paid me last week + so you ain’t gettin’ nothin’ tonight!”
it’s been a long time
it’s been a long time
hangin’ out in lynn’s cafe 1959
we ran the streets together and we never had a dime
it’s been a long time, it’s been a long long long long time
still life never moved me or the friends that i chose
they was always up to something, as the saying goes
the road to good intentions was starting to fray
and then i met a lunatic who showed me the way
it’s been a long time
it’s been a long time
well ’no’ is not an option when your ass is on the line
i didn’t need no lawyer, i was desperate to sign
it’s been a long time, it’s been a long long long long time
be careful what you wish for
dreams can come true
i was used to failure
this was something new
we tripped the light fandango till we ran out of steam
and then one by one we fell off the end of a dream
it’s been a long time, it’s been a long time
you take a chance on destiny
you never know what you’ll find
fortune and misfortune are forever entwined
it’s been a long time + it’s been a long long long long time
it’s been a long time, it’s been a long time
you’ve been going your way
i’ve been going mine
i wasn’t born in the usa but i’m that way inclined
it’s been a long time
it’s been a long long long long long long long long time
oo if you’re ever in the vicinity
drop me a line
it’s been a long time
it’s been a long long long long…
