Everybody wants to be loved Every once in a while We all need someone to hold on to Just like a helpless child (yeah) Can you whisper in my ear Let me know it's all right Chorus It's been a long time coming down this road and now I know what I've been waiting for just like a lonely highway I'm trying to get home, oohooh Love's been a long time coming. You can love for a lifetime You could love for a day You can think you've got everything but Everything is nothing when you throw it away (yeah) Then you look in my eyes And I have it all once again Chorus Didn't know I was lost Till you found me Didn't know I was blind But now I see Can you whisper in my ear Let me know its all right It's been a long time coming down this road And now I know what I've been searching for Been a long, long highway And now I see oohooh Love's been a long time Oh been a long time Love's been a long time coming.
