It's Been A Long Time Comin' Lyrics

Out where the creek turn shallow and sandy And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars When the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops Straight into my arms Straight into my arms

I'm ridin' hard carryin' a cache of roses A fresh map that I made Now I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul And dance on it's grave And dance on it's grave

It's been a long time comin', my dear It's been a long time comin', but now it's here And now it's here

Well my daddy he was just a stranger Lived in a hotel downtown Well when I was a kid he was just somebody Somebody I'd see around Somebody I'd see around

Well now down below and pullin' on my shirt Yeah I got some kids of my own Well if I had one wish for you in this god forsaken world, kid It'd be that your mistakes will be your own That your sins will be your own
It's been a long time comin', my dear It's been a long time comin', but now it's here And now it's here

(Whoaaa)

Out 'neath the arms of Cassiopeia Where the sword of Orion sweeps It's me and you, Rosie, cracklin' like crossed wires And you breathin' in your sleep And you breathin' in your sleep

Well there's just a spark of a campfire left burnin' Two kids in a sleeping bag beside Reach 'neath your shirt, put my hands across your belly and feel Another one kickin' inside And I ain't gonna f*ck it up this time

It's been a long time comin', my dear It's been a long time comin', but now it's here It's been a long time comin', my dear It's been a long time comin', but now it's here

(Whoaaa)
