It's Been So Long

Running to the shadows

A place I know well

My fingers graze the walls

That are hidden and worned down

I often sit and wonder if there's anyone else

Lurking in the dark trying to find their way out

Chorus

Cause it's been so long

Since I've been alone

It's been so long

Since I've called a place home

And I don't know why 

This lonely heart wants more

Now that i've seen you in the light

I close my eyes

Letting the darkness fill the void in my mind

My heart it beats like a drum

That is deafening in these cave walls

But your touch is warm against my skin

It's familiar and holds a promise within

But it's been so long

Since I've been alone

It's been so long

Since I've called a place home

And I don't know why

This lonely heart wants more

Now that I've seen you in the light 

I'm so afraid of letting go

Of all that I've ever known

Your voice secures what lies beneath

All the fears that have sank so deep

But It's time to go

It's time to let go and spread my wings

Cause it's been so long

Since I've been alone

It's been so long

Since I've called a place home

But now this lonely heart wants more

Now that I've seen you in the light

This lonely heart wants more

Now that I've seen you...in the light
