A Long Time

John Foxx


Lost again in shades of green
Seasons changing under me
Seems like I forgot to steer
Close my eyes, I know it's been a long time
Such a long time
Silence in your silver passing
Glinting in the bliss of laughing
Shafts of someone slowly glancing
Down on me, I know it's been a long time
Look in the mirror
Well I know it's clear
To get me to the hollow
Well I haven't been here for such a long time
For such a long time
Such a long time
How's she been?
The place is just the same
??? but to me it all seems like a life time
Such a long time
Passing in your quiet way
Silent in the silent day
Moving as you move away
Wherever you go I wish you fell
It's been a long time
Smiling in the hazy blaze
As the focus starts to change
Watch the room begin to sway
Just beside me someone's says "It's a long time"
Such a long time
