Long Long Time - Linda Ronstadt

The higher the mountain, the harder the fall Looking for blood at the scene of the crime It's been running in circles or nothing at all For a long, long, long time Boxing at shadows and listening at doors Pushing the buttons and pulling the blinds We haven't been honest or clever or sure In a long, long, long time It's been a long, long, long time Oh, funny how the heart of everyone Is the part you'll never know Funny how the heart of holding on Is letting go The higher the mountain, the harder thе fall Turning the corner and looking for signs You leap in thе dark while I wait for the call It's been a long, long, long time Out of the furnace and into the flames Holding a candle and crossing the line We haven't been playing with fire or rain In a long, long, long time For a long, long, long time It's been a long, long, long time Oh, funny how the heart of everyone Is the part you'll never know Oh, funny how the heart of holding on Is letting go Funny how the heart of everyone (save me the last word) Is the part you'll never know Funny how the heart of holding on (save me the last word) Is letting go Funny how the heart of everyone (save me the last word) Is the part you'll never know Funny how the heart of holding on (save me the last word) Is letting go The higher the mountain, the harder the fall The higher the mountain, the harder the fall

Love will abide Take things in stride Sounds like good advice But there's no one at my side And time washes clean Love's wounds unseen That's what someone told me But I don't know what it means 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long, long time

Sunny called I was in the hall And made a note I have to paint the kitchen walls An angel smiled across the room All in all, it was a lazy afternoon Then I thought about you I think it was Some sweet song that I heard Got to get goin' goin' ahead It will take a long, long time Got to go ahead and deal with my life It has taken such a long time this time Sunny called, I was in the bath And heard the rain hit the roof And tiles real hard (hit the roof real hard/hit the roof) Then I ran through my magazines A few letters poorly hidden in a jar (hidden in a jar/oh what a jar!) And I thought about you It must have been some old pictures I found Got to get goin' goin' ahead It will take a long, long time, yea yea Got to go ahead and deal with my life It has taken such a long time this time Inganakee Leo Yo Inganakee Leo

Kiss me once, then kiss me twice Kiss me once again It's been a long, long time Haven't felt like this, my dear Since can't remember when It's been a long, long time You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you Or just how empty they all seemed without you So kiss me once, kiss me twice Kiss me once again It's been a long, long time It's been a long, long time A long, long time You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you Or just how empty they all seemed without you So kiss me once, kiss me twice Kiss me once again It's been a long, long time

The strange young man who comes to me A soldier on a three day spree Who needs one night's cheap ecstasy And a woman's arms to hide him He greets me with a courtly bow And hides his pain by acting proud He drinks too much and he laughs too loud How can I deny him? Let us dance beneath the moon I'll sing to you "Claire de Lune' The morning always comes too soon But tonight the war is over He speaks to me in schoolboy French Of a soldier's life inside a trench Of the look of death and the ghastly stench I do my best to please him He puts two roses in a vase Two roses sadly out of place Like the gallant smile on his haggard face Playfully I tease him Hold me 'neath the Paris skies Let's not talk of how or why Tomorrow's soon enough to die But tonight the war is over We make love too hard too fast He falls asleep, his face a mask He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask I put my arms around him They die in the trenches and they die in the air In Belgium and France the dead are everywhere They die so fast there's no time to prepare A decent grave to surround them Old world glory, old world fame The old world's gone, gone up in flames Nothing will ever be the same And nothing lasts forever Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how And there's nothing, nothing that can save him now There's always another with the same funny bow And who am I to deny them Lux aeterna Luce-at e-is domine cum Sanctic tu-is in aeternum Qui-a pius es requiem aeternaum Dona e-is Domine. Qui-a pius es requiem aeternaum Dona e-is Domine Qui-a pius es et lux perpetua luce-at- e-is Cum Sancris tu-is in Aeternum qui-api-us es Tonight the war is over...

Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo Tanto que ya no puedo sollozar Solo, temblando de ansiedad estoy Todos me miran y se van Mujer, si puedes tú con Dios hablar Pregúntale si yo alguna vez Te he dejado de adorar Al mar, espejo de mi corazón Las veces que me ha visto llorar La perfidia de tu amor Te he buscado por doquiera que yo voy Y no te puedo hallar Para qué quiero tus besos Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar Y tú, quién sabe por dónde andarás Quién sabe qué aventura tendrás Qué lejos estás de mí Te he buscado por doquiera que yo voy Y no te puedo hallar Para qué quiero tus besos Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar Y tú, quién sabe por dónde andarás Quién sabe qué aventura tendrás Qué lejos estás de mí De mí
