Long Time Coming Lyrics by Ready for the World

Long Time Coming

1986

I'm sitting in my room
And waiting on the phone to ring
Should I worry
Should I care
If you'll call me tonite
I'm jumping in my car
And going too damn fast for me
Should I make it
Will she fake it
When we do it tonite
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming for you
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming for you
If your mother
Only knew what I did to you
Would she hate me
Would she like me
When we do it tonite
In the morning
When I rise
Will I see your face
Will I be wrong, if I stay long
So we can do it tonite
It's been a long time coming (baby)
It's been a long time coming for you
It's been a long time coming (ohh)
It's been a long time coming for you
(ah, ah, ah...)
I used to wake in the middle of the night
Waiting for the phone to ring
Now we're busy
Making history
Will you do it tonite
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming for you (yes it has)
It's been a long time coming, baby
It's been a long time coming (for you)
If I loved you, If I hold you
Would you love me tonite (I like it like that)
Could we be, in love
So I can love you all night (hold up wait up for a second)
Can I be the one
Can i love you
Can we do it all night (yea)
Let the morning
Be our witness
Of a long long night
It's been a long time coming
It's been a long time coming for you
It's been a long time coming baby
It's been a long time coming (for you) (yea)
(Ohh, it's been a long time
A too damn long for me
Of lovin' can't ya see
Long time !...)
