Christopher Cross Long World Lyrics

Long World Lyrics

There's a brand new light in my life

Shines after the candle is out at night

It's gotten the best of me

It's got my heart and it won't set it free

I just can't tell you why

If I did, well it might be a lie



It's a long world we're living in

I've got to have her from beginning to end

It's long world we're living in

I just can't live without her





Does anybody know how it feels to want her this bad

So bad you'd give your life away

There's gotta be somebody somewhere

Who needs someone like I need you





And I wait for the day to take her away in vain

And I realize I'll always feel the same
