It’s been a long time coming
I’ve been a long time gone
I didn’t know I was missing
until you said I was gone
We spent the whole night dancing
until the lights went out
I never gave you a chance
‘cos I was always in doubt

Oh, what a joy – heaven is on its way
and I will spend a whole life saying :
I didn’t mean it that way

I took the road much travelled
no troubles on my back
I never knew I was straying
‘cos I was never on track

Oh, what a joy – heaven is on its way
and I will spend a whole life saying :
I didn’t mean it that way
