Billy Joel Lyrics for Song: The Longest Time
 Lyrics for Album: The Essential Billy Joel 3.0 [2008]
 
 
 
 32144>Whoa oh oh oh
 
 For the longest time
 
 Whoa oh oh
 
 For the longest...
 
 
 
 If you said good-bye to me tonight
 
 There would still be music left to write
 
 What else could I do?
 
 I'm so inspired by you
 
 That hasn't happened for the longest time
 
 
 
 Once I thought my innocence was gone
 
 Now I know that happiness goes on
 
 That's where you found me
 
 When you put you're arms around me
 
 I haven't been there for the longest time
 
 
 
 Whoa oh oh oh
 
 For the longest time
 
 Whoa oh oh
 
 For the longest time
 
 
 
 I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
 
 And the greatest miracle of all
 
 Is how I need you
 
 And how you needed me too
 
 That hasn't happened for the longest time
 
 
 
 Maybe this won't last very long
 
 But you feel so right
 
 And I could be wrong
 
 Maybe I've been hoping too hard
 
 But I've gone this far
 
 And it's more than I hoped for
 
 
 
 Who knows how much further we'll go on?
 
 Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
 
 I'll take my chances
 
 I forgot how nice romance is
 
 I haven't been there for the longest time
 
 
 
 I had second thoughts at the start
 
 I said to myself - "Hold onto your heart"
 
 Now I know the woman that you are
 
 You're wonderful so far
 
 And it's more than I hoped for
 
 
 
 I don't care what consequence it brings
 
 I have been a fool for lesser things
 
 I want you so bad
 
 I think you ought to know that
 
 I intend to hold you for the longest time
 
 
 
 Whoa oh oh oh
 
 For the longest time
 
 Whoa oh oh
 
 For the longest time
 
 Whoa oh oh
 
 For the longest time (Repeat and fade)
