It's been a long time coming
But I know you are the one
Here at home at last
The days have ceasedIt's been a long time coming
And I know we've just begun
All the pain has passed
And there is peaceIf the breath was warm and tender
Now the breath becomes a yawn
And I've been returned to sender
And I'm better since I'm goneIt's been a long time coming
But I know you are the one
Here with time erased
I'm at my bestIt's been a long time coming
And I know we've just begun
Without a pretty face
I can just restBut the march is still ongoing
I can hear the drummers' roll
And it can't show signs of slowing
It is true, dear, it's my soulIt's been a long time coming
But I know you are the one
Here at home at last
The days have ceasedIt's been a long time coming
And I know we've just begun
All the pain has passed
And there is peace
