"Why Does It Take So Long To Say Goodbye" lyrics
"Why Does It Take So Long To Say Goodbye"
Tired of running
I've seen these times before
Desperation
Our candle burns no more
Everything we know
Takes us so far away
Trace your steps back
Don't let 'em guide your way
When I leave
Oh, I leave for good
No coming back
Like you said I would
You crossed the line
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Every time
I'm just a castaway
Cast out into the sea
Another rainy night
Tears from the endless fights
Oh, I carried you
Carried you on my own
So take the love you've had
And pretend you always know
When I leave
Oh, I leave for good
No coming back
Like you said I would
You crossed the line
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Every time
Say goodbye
Every time
When I leave
Oh, I leave for good
No coming back
Like you said I would
You've crossed the line
Why does it take so long to say goodbye?
Every time
Say goodbye
Every time, yeah...

Joe Bonamassa told about "Why Does It Take So Long To Say Goodbye" on Facebook, "It's a truthful account of a relationship that took a while to unwind because both of us really truly love each other. And found out by the end it didn't work. And before we never spoke again. And want the each other's lives we decided to separate."
