How Could It Take so Long? Lyrics

In the darkness I've been waiting
I've been hungry, hot and hating
All the silence, can't you even hear?

How could it take so long to appear?

There was water in the sky then
There was water making islands
Now there's water falling in a tear

How could it take so long to appear?

Some need something they can lie on
Some need something they can die on
All I need's a bus to anywhere

How could it take so long to appear?

I have no one to go back to
I have nothing on my back too
Just the sun if all the clouds would clear

How could it take so long to appear?
How could it take so long to appear?
