Joe Boyd - Long Time Coming Lyrics

That was just a long time coming
I'm on your tongue, for me to run and throw it all away
That was just a long time coming
It's so unnatural, to live with such a supernatural fate
My drug, is non-negotiable
But you still had me flying, I was relying
Who knew, I thought that you would be
The one to come and save me, but now you blame me
Don't think I've ever felt so bad, lady
Usually I just feel sad, baby
That was just a long time coming
I'm on your tongue, for me to run and throw it all away
That was just a long time coming
It's so unnatural, to live with such a supernatural fate
Don't think I've ever felt so bad, lady
Usually I just feel sad, baby
I see where I went wrong
Let go of you too long
Now all the smoke and tricks
Are just making me sick
Alone in the night, I want to call ya
As if I could ever sleep
You're one of the deepest and darkest secrets
I couldn't find a way to keep
They'll never know
I'm on your tongue, for me to run and throw it all away
It's so unnatural, to live with such a supernatural fate

That was just a long time coming
I'm on your tongue, for me to run and throw it all away
That was just a long time coming
It's so unnatural, to live with such a supernatural fate
My drug, is non-negotiable
But you still had me flying, I was relying
Who knew, I thought that you would be
The one to come and save me, but now you blame me
Don't think I've ever felt so bad, lady
Usually I just feel sad, baby
That was just a long time coming
I'm on your tongue, for me to run and throw it all away
That was just a long time coming
It's so unnatural, to live with such a supernatural fate
Don't think I've ever felt so bad, lady
Usually I just feel sad, baby
I see where I went wrong
Let go of you too long
Now all the smoke and tricks
Are just making me sick
Alone in the night, I want to call ya
As if I could ever sleep
You're one of the deepest and darkest secrets
I couldn't find a way to keep
They'll never know
I'm on your tongue, for me to run and throw it all away
It's so unnatural, to live with such a supernatural fate
