Never's Such A Long Time

Packing my bags, I hear your
Your song on the radio
Makin' me smile and think
I should call you, I know

In a couple of days
I was gonna call you and say
Hey, how much you mean to me
How I think of you always

And God, if I'd only just told you
And God, God, if I simply just told you
Like I truly meant to

Why didn't I say so?
Why didn't I just call
One day just to say
Hey, I think you're such a legend?

Why did I wait so long
To pick up the phone and call?
For those left behind
Never's such a long time, such a long time

Singing along to your song
Thinking it won't be long
I'll get to tell you the way
You came into my life, it changed

Then the call came
One you don't want to hear again
Life would never be the same
I would nerve see you again

Oh God, if I'd only just told you
And God, if I simply just told you
Like I truly meant to

Why didn't I say so?
Why didn't I just call
One day just to say
Hey, I think you're such a legend?

Why did I wait so long
To pick up the phone and call?
For those left behind
Never's such a long time

And there will always be regret
Why did I let myself forget?
Now sorrow clings to my vine
If only I'd made tomorrow

Made tomorrow mine today
And now a million tomorrows
A million tomorrows pass away

The next time you see me
I hope you'll forgive me
For all the times I didn't, did not
But I should have said

Why did I wait so long
To pick up the phone and call?
For those left behind
Never's such a long time

Such a very long time
Never's such a long time
Never's such a long time
Never's such a long time
