Bruce Springsteen - Long Time Comin' Lyrics






Out where the creek turn shallow and sandy
And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars
When the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops
Straight into my arms
Straight into my arms

I'm ridin' hard carryin' a cache of roses
A fresh map that I made
Now I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
And dance on it's grave
And dance on it's grave

It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
And now it's here

Well my daddy he was just a stranger
Lived in a hotel downtown
Well when I was a kid he was just somebody
Somebody I'd see around
Somebody I'd see around

Well now down below and pullin' on my shirt
Yeah I got some kids of my own
Well if I had one wish for you in this god forsaken world, kid
It'd be that your mistakes will be your own
That your sins will be your own

It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
And now it's here

(Whoaaa)

Out 'neath the arms of Cassiopeia*
Where the sword of Orion sweeps
It's me and you, Rosie, cracklin' like crossed wires
And you breathin' in your sleep
And you breathin' in your sleep

Well there's just a spark of a campfire left burnin'
Two kids in a sleeping bag beside
Reach 'neath your shirt, put my hands across your belly and feel
Another one kickin' inside
And I ain't gonna fuck it up this time

It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here
It's been a long time comin', my dear
It's been a long time comin', but now it's here

(Whoaaa)

    Mister Perfect....

    You know, there’s a place for f-bombs, but I think it’s jarring and gratuitous in this song. This is such a bright uplifting song, “messed” or even “screwed” would have sufficed.

    You know there will never be another Bruce, that man was born to make music,and create the story’s that go with them. He is a poet, a story writer who puts it all together in his wonderful songs, for us his lucky fans too listen to, too party to or just kick back and listen too all his stories in song.🎼♥️🇦🇺💋🇺🇸

  38. C.... C....

    Não posso ve-lo como eu gostaria e não posso te abraçar, quando a brisa da noite sopra meu cabelo, imagino que é o seu beijo.
    Quando a luz da manhã me envolve imagino que é seu Abraço. A distância não é para os tímidos, é para os corajosos. É para aqueles que estão dispostos a trocar o tempo que poderiam passar sozinhos para estar com alguém que amam. Você para mim é uma coisa boa, mesmo que eu não o tenha. Mas, no fundo do meu coração, uma coisa eu sei: eu te amo com todo o meu ser, hoje eu te amo mais do que ontem!
