How Long Have You Been There Sözleri

I've been walking in the shadows for so long that I forgot the sun could shine

I've turned away from everything and everyone that wanted to be mine

Somehow I always shot my eyes and heart to anything that I might share

Now I'm standing still and I wonder how long have you been there

Every path I've taken I've turned around and quickly closed the door

It seems that all I knew if I ever stop to feel I want more

I kept a steady run so my eyes could never focus anywhere

Now I'm standing still and I wonder how long have you been there

How long have you been standing there protecting me from love that shouldn't be

Knowing all alone that I would realize that you were meant for me

Now I've got to mend every broken fence and bridge that I have burned

And clear away the cobwebs in my heart so I can start to learn

For now I realize that you've been waiting just to teach me how to care

Now I'm standing still and I wonder how long have you been there

Now I'm standing still and I wonder how long have you been there
