Lyrics

Long time coming Father raised me wisely I am his black sheep son Our minds are set differently And so it all begun That I left home early Still all so young It’s a long time coming And I’ll be a long time gone Some might meet me on their cross-roads As I am passing through They’ll remember me as they wish to As I drift from their view I aint got time to think about that I’ve got too much to get done It’s a long time coming And I’ll be a long time gone Once I loved a woman Honestly and in deed She broke my heart and I broke hers And left it all to bleed Now the only heart I have to give Is in my songs and deeds It’s a long time coming And I’ll be a long time gone I do wish to help somebody With a word or a song I do wish to warn someone If their choices are wrong But I know I aint a prophet And I aint a prophet’s son It’s a long time coming And I’ll be a long time gone I don’t need a silver lining Around my dark clouds I don’t need a holiday With cocktails in the sun I don’t need the latest trend To send a spark to everyone It’s a long time coming And I’ll be a long time gone They can have all their beauty It’s skin deep and only lies They can have their youth As it rots before their eyes Just give to me my gravestone With clearly carved upon “It’s been a long time coming Now I’ll be a long time gone”
