Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer
For me to ever get you off of my mind
Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer
Cause I've been lovin' you a long long time

People try to tell me that it won't be long
Till I won't even miss you anymore
But I can tell them it must be something mighty wrong
Caue every day I want you even more

And baby it's gonna take a little bit longer...

[ steel - strings ]
They say this lonely feeling it'll go away
But after all this time now it ain't gone
Every weaken moment and every night and day
It just seems to keep on keeping on

Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer...
Yes I've been lovin' you a long long time
