JFH Song Lyrics

  Artist List   /   Chris Sligh   /   Take A Chance On Something Beautiful (as 'Half Past Forever')




17. How Long

Take A Chance On Something Beautiful (as 'Half Past Forever')
by Chris Sligh



 

 

Shadows fill the places where I used to be

And now I know the pictures I hold on to

Are gone away, they’re gone away

And I’m just getting older

Maybe getting older brings me closer to you



All my days are spent away

In daydreams and all I wonder is...



How long, how long

How long till I get to be with you

How long, how long

My heart is longing for you



All my life’s been leading to this:

I’ve been dreaming

I know that life was meant for so much more

All the dreams and hopes to be

Are just dreams of something bigger

Maybe all this dreaming brings me closer to you



How long, how long

How long till I see your face again?

words and music by Chris Sligh
