WILLIE NELSON lyrics : "How Long Have You Been There"
the sun can shine
I've turned away from everone and everything that wanted to
be mine
Somehow I always shot my eyes and heart to everything that I
could share
Now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long
have you been there
And every path I've taken I have turned around and quickly
closed the door
It seems as though I knew if I ever stop to feel I want more
I kept a steady run so my eyes could never focus anywhere
Now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long
have you been there
How long have you been standing there protecting me from love
that shouldn't be
Knowing all alone that I could realize that you were meant for
me
Now I've got to mend every broken fence and bridge that I
have burned
I've got to clear away the cobwebs in my heart so I can
start to learn
For I realize that you've been waiting just to teach me how
to care
Now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how long
have you been there
And now I'm standing still and I'm wondering just how
long have you been there
