It's Taking Too Long

By Bruce Clifford

It’s taking longer to understand
To read the visions I hold in my hand
Are you with me or are you in the sky
These are the reasons I let the hours pass by

I have no answers to what came before
Does it really matter if you really knew what for
Are you against me or are you by my side
These are the reasons I like to roll with the tide

It’s taking too long to get to nowhere
It’s taking too long to reach the end of the road
It’s taking too long to discover what’s been missing
It’s taking too long for you or me to understand

If you’re confused are you the only one
The times you captured are evaporated by the sun
Are you with me or are you on the fly
These are the reasons I struggle with this lie

It’s taking too long to get to nowhere
It’s taking too long to reach the end of the road
It’s taking too long to discover what’s been missing
It’s taking too long for you or me to understand
