It's been a long time A little like wine Not something I thought I'd come back to again I turned back the clocks When I opened up the box A piece of me hidden away like a gem I guess I'll have another round So let's hang up all the pictures Even the ones we threw away Things will never be the same After the day that you find It's been a long time It's been a long time And still it's benign The sharpest parts hurt slightly less than before Without being numb To the way the colors run It's good to know nothing got lost on the shore Don't have to go to sea and drown So let's hang up all the pictures Even the ones we threw away Things will never be the same After the day that you find It's been a long time
