It's been a long, long time
It's been a long, long time
I find you hiding underneath the willow trees
The way the wind, it even speaks through me
Your memories are my words
You are the wild inside the wilderness
You are the quiet in the gentleness
Your melodies, the birds
It's been a long, long time
It's been a long, long time
It's been a long, long time
I'm gonna hold on
I'm gonna hold
I'm gonna hold on
I'm gonna hold
I'm gonna hold on
It's been a long, long time
I find you hiding underneath the willow trees
The way the wind, it even speaks through me
Your memories are my words
You are the wild inside the wilderness
You are the quiet in the gentleness
Your melodies, the birds
It's been a long, long time
It's been a long, long time
It's been a long, long time
I'm gonna hold on
I'm gonna hold
I'm gonna hold on
I'm gonna hold
I'm gonna hold on
