Lyrics Rickie Lee Jones

Rickie Lee Jones

Seems Like a Long Time

Nighttime is only the other side of daytime

But if you've ever waited for the sun

You know what it's like to wish daytime would come

And don't it seem like a long time

Seem like a long time, seem like a long, long time

Sometimes it seems like a long time, seems like a long time

Seems like a long, long time

Yes it does, a long, long time

Hard times are only the other side of good times

But if you ever wished hard times were gone

You know what it's like to wish good times would come

And don't it seem like a long time

Seem like a long time, seem like a long, long time

Sometimes it seems like a long time, seems like a long time

Seems like a long, long time

Yes it does, a long, long time

You know what it's like to wish good times would come

And don't it seem like a long time

Seem like a long time, seem like a long, long time

Sometimes it seems like a long time, seems like a long time

Seems like a long, long time

Yes it does, a long, long time

War time is only the other side of peace time

But if you've ever seen how wars are won

You know what it's like to wish that peace would come

And don't it seem like a long time

Seem like a long time, seem like a long, seem like a long, long time

Sometimes it seems like a long time, seems like a very long time

Seems like a long, long time

Sometimes it seems like a long time, seems like a long time

Seems like a long, long time

Yes it does, a long, long time

Yes it does, a long, long time

Yes it does, a long, long time
