Been Too Long lyrics

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

and I, 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.
