How Long

(album: A Force Majeure - 2021)

How long must it last?
How long till the feelings rust?
Forget wide and distant thoughts
I tell them the morning rose too fast
How long before I see?
How long till it works for me?
Remember the gold and green
Fading off the long fall ending

We look back on long ago
When we're riding through the rough
We can find what we're looking for
If we make it right
We'd have crashed out long ago
But we're diamonds in the rough
Could've found almost anyone
But we magnetised

How long?
How long till the trouble passes?
Did we really think about this?
Did we really think about it?
Until then
Till then will we realise if
It's happened or if it started?
Did we really think about it?

We look back on long ago
When we're riding through the rough
We can find what we're looking for
If we make it right
We'd have crashed out long ago
But we're diamonds in the rough
Could've found almost anyone
But we magnetised

Calling out for
Calling out for something in the distance sight
We never knew existed
Cause maybe we missed it
Reaching out for
Reaching out for something in the
Distance sight we never knew we needed
'Cause we'd never seen it

We look back on long ago
When we're riding through the rough
We can find what we're looking for
If we make it right
We'd have crashed out long ago
But we're diamonds in the rough
Could've found almost anyone
But we magnetised
