For So Long
by Connie Scott

Tell me what's on your mind
Is it too much for me to ask?
I've seen your moods change
With every rising tide
And they never seem to last
Well, you always run when illusions come
Face to face with reality
Shattered dreams and broken hearts
Take their toll on you
But you're beginning to see

That for so long, He's been reaching out
And for so long, you've run, run, run
But for so long, you know you've needed Him
You cannot win this game you've played
For so long, so, so long

Down in your heart
You know you've been deceived
It seems the pain has changed your mind
You've fallen for lies
You know you never believed
Found you're wasting your precious time
You've always known
He could sooth your heart
From the day that you first believed
Oh, the world has got you running
From that voice inside
A voice that they can't hear
A truth that they can't see

And for so long, He's been reaching out
And for so long, you've run, run, run
But for so long, He's been by your side
Still you think that you're the only one
For so long, He's been reaching out
And for so long, you've just turned away
But for so long, you know you've needed Him
You cannot win this game you've played
For so long

For so long
For so long

For so long, He's been reaching out
And for so long, you've run, run, run
But for so long, He's been by your side
Still you think that you're the only one
For so long, He's been reaching out
And for so long, you've just turned away
But for so long, you know you've needed Him
You cannot win this game you've played
For so long...
