It's Gonna Take A Little Bit Longer

(album: This Time The Hurtin's On Me - 1973)

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 loving 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
'Cause every day I want you even more

And 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 loving you a long long time

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