Long Time Comin' Lyrics

Out where the creek turn shallow and sandy

And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars

When the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops

Straight into my arms

Straight into my arms

I'm ridin' hard carryin' a cache of roses

A fresh map that I made

Now I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul

And dance on it's grave

And dance on it's grave

It's been a long time comin', my dear

It's been a long time comin', but now it's here

And now it's here

Well my daddy he was just a stranger

Lived in a hotel downtown

Well when I was a kid he was just somebody

Somebody I'd see around

Somebody I'd see around

Well now down below and pullin' on my shirt

Yeah I got some kids of my own

Well if I had one wish for you in this god forsaken world, kid

It'd be that your mistakes will be your own

That your sins will be your own

It's been a long time comin', my dear

It's been a long time comin', but now it's here

And now it's here

(Whoaaa)

Out 'neath the arms of Cassiopeia*

Where the sword of Orion sweeps

It's me and you, Rosie, cracklin' like crossed wires

And you breathin' in your sleep

And you breathin' in your sleep

Well there's just a spark of a campfire left burnin'

Two kids in a sleeping bag beside

Reach 'neath your shirt, put my hands across your belly and feel

Another one kickin' inside

And I ain't gonna fuck it up this time

It's been a long time comin', my dear

It's been a long time comin', but now it's here

It's been a long time comin', my dear

It's been a long time comin', but now it's here

(Whoaaa)
