It's Gonna Take a Little Bit Longer
Kitty Wells · I've Got Yesterday [1972]
(Ben Peters)
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
For me to ever get you off of my mind
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
'Cause I've been loving you a long, long time.
People try to tell me that it won't be long
Till I won't even miss you anymore
But I can tell there must be something mighty wrong
Every day I want you even more.
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
For me to ever get you off of my mind
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
'Cause I've been loving you a long, long time.
--- Instrumental ---
They say this lonely feeling it'll go away
But after all this time now it ain't gone
Every wakin' moment every night and day
It just seems to keep on keeping on.
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
For me to ever get you off of my mind
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
'Cause I've been loving you a long, long time.
Yes, I've been loving you a long, long time...
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
For me to ever get you off of my mind
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
'Cause I've been loving you a long, long time.
People try to tell me that it won't be long
Till I won't even miss you anymore
But I can tell there must be something mighty wrong
Every day I want you even more.
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
For me to ever get you off of my mind
It's a gonna take a little bit longer
'Cause I've been loving you a long, long time.

Yes, I've been loving you a long, long time...
