Been Too Long

September, the leaves were falling red and gold

And I remember the way you pulled me closer

Nothing else existed in the world we lived in

Hidden, we didn't see the storm was coming closer

That was then

But the time has come and gone

Nothing left but a broken story

We can't change, can't erase

Nothing that we can say now

Can get back what we gave up

That was then, this is now

It's been too long

December, when we were

Drifting like the falling snow

Around us but then a winter's chill

Blew through your heart

Mistakes we made

Didn't know what they'd change

The silence, was so hard

But I am stronger for it

That was then

But the time has come and gone

Nothing left but a broken story

We can't change, can't erase

Nothing that we can say now

Can get back what we gave up

That was then, this is now

It's been too long

September, the leaves are

Falling gold again

I remember the way we were

That was then

But the time has come and gone

Nothing left but a broken story

We can't change, can't erase

Nothing that we can say now

Can get back what we gave up

That was then, this is now

It's been too long

It's been too long

It's been too long
