[Verse 1]
I fell asleep on the couch while she read
Took off my boots and she put me to bed
She helped me to undress
Told me I was hopeless
I did the dishes and found peace in the sink
Just for 20 minutes I did not have to think
And that emptiness felt just like happiness

[Chorus]
You took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
It out
Oh, you took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
It out

[Verse 2]
I couldn't leave it and I couldn't be true
I didn't know then what would happen to you
We danced to fucked up tunes
It was okay with you
I left the living and took off with the dead
And the lights on the streets soothed the pain in my head
And it was all in a night
That we would keep all our lives

[Chorus]
You took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
It out
Oh, you took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
It out

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
You took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
It out
Oh, you took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
It out

[Outro]
You took a long time leaving
You took a long time seeing, seeing it out
