Longtime Baby
Been a long time since that ship had sailed
been a long time
long time baby
i remember when i drank from your well
been a long time
been a long time baby
the man i was now an empty shell
been a long time
a long time baby
you’re as beautiful now still as frail
been a long time
a long time baby
too long i’m sorry











Powerfully penned, Bat. Excellent write with a lyrical vibe my friend. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you.

Thank you Damian
This has the feel of an old blues song—regret, distance, and a love that never quite stopped haunting the speaker. The repeated “been a long time” works like a slow heartbeat, making that final “too long I’m sorry” land hard.
Thank you, Mr. Case I appreciate you
