what i've known for a very long time

oh what's it really matter

between you and me

cause i've been chasing it down

a street of misery

but now i've been waiting

for you to recognize

what i've known for a very long time

five long years ago

when i saw you walk through the door

i'd been searching for love

that

oh

gave me more

but now i've been waiting

for you to recognize

what i've known for a very long time

i've run into trouble baby

time and time again

it's in the wee

wee hours

when you need your best friend

finally after all

all the sleepless nights

find the one who makes you happy

oh she makes it so

so right

girl i'll be strong for you

baby

when a good man is what you need

no more chasing it down a street of misery

cause now i've been waiting

for you to recognize

what i've known for a very long time

i've run into trouble baby

time and time again

it's in the wee

wee hours

when you need your best friend

finally after all

all the sleepless nights

you find the one who makes you happy

oh she makes it so

so right

girl i'll be strong for you

baby

when a good man is what you need

no more chasing it down a street of misery

cause now i've been waiting

for you to recognize

what i've known for a very long time
