How could it take so long?

Feel

Print without graphics

In the darkness Iâ€™ve been waiting
Iâ€™ve been hungry, hot and hating
All the silence
Canâ€™t you even hear?
How could it take so long to appear?
There was water in the sky then
There was water making islands
Now thereâ€™s water falling in a tear
How could it take so long to appear?
Some need something they can lie on

Some need something they can die on
All I needâ€™s a bus to anywhere
How could it take so long to appear?
I have no one to go back to
I have nothing on my back too
Just the sun if all the clouds would clear
How could it take so long to appear?
How could it take so long to appear?
