if you said goodbye to me tonight
there would still be music left to write
what else could i do
i'm so inspired by you
this hasn't happened for the longest time
woah for the longest time
woah for the longest
once i thought my innocence was gone
now i know that happiness goes on
that's where you found me
when you put your arms around me
i haven't been there for the longest time
woah for the longest time
woah for the longest
i'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
and the greatest miracle of all
is how i need you
and how you needed me too
this hasn't happened for the longest time
maybe this won't last very long
you feel so right but i could be wrong
maybe i have been hoping too hard
but i've come this far
and it's more than i hope for
who knows how much longer we'll go on
maybe i'll be sorry when you're gone
i'll take my chances
i forgot how nice romance is
i haven't be there for the longest
i had second thoughts from the start
i said to myself hold on to your heart
now i know (the man) that you are
you're wonderful so far
and it's more than i hoped for
i don't care what consequence this brings
i have been a fool for lesser things
i want you so bad
i think you ought to know that I intend
to hold you for the longest time
