Paroles de How Long Have You Been There

I've been walking in the shadows for so long that I forgot the sun can shine I've turned away from everone and everything that wanted to be mine Somehow I always shot my eyes and heart to everything that I could share Now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long have you been there And every path I've taken I have turned around and quickly closed the door It seems as though I knew if I ever stop to feel I want more I kept a steady run so my eyes could never focus anywhere Now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long have you been there How long have you been standing there protecting me from love that shouldn't be Knowing all alone that I could realize that you were meant for me Now I've got to mend every broken fence and bridge that I have burned I've got to clear away the cobwebs in my heart so I can start to learn For I realize that you've been waiting just to teach me how to care Now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long have you been there And now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long have you been there
