"Long Time" lyrics

"Long Time"

Takes a long time, a long time
In this valley of despair
Takes a long time, a long time
For someone to find you there
Takes a long time for prayers
To fly up through the air
Someone to hear them
When you're way down there

One day, two days, three days, four
Just a little bit longer, just a little bit more
Five days, six days, seven, eight, nine, ten
Just a little bit longer, we can hold on till then

We can pray a little bit harder
Pray a little bit harder
Pray a little bit harder
Pray a little bit harder

I call out to the souls out on the glory way
For them to come and find me
Carry me away
I call out to the souls
Out on the glory way
For them to come and find me
One of these days

One of these days
One of these days
Long time
Long time
Long time
In this valley of despair
