It Hasn't Been Long Enough - Eric Hutchinson

Long as I am erasing this there’s something I am bound to miss

Opportunities exist but often don’t arise

And think of how it must have felt to watch you walk away and melt

I keep it all inside myself and in between my eyes

And it’s no surprise what we’ve become

Since the arrival has begun

It hasn’t been long enough to even begin to think it’s alright

I’m only concerned with the way we end up

I think I’ve been wrong enough to know when I’m right

So put up fight if you must but we know that our trust is undone

It hasn’t been long enough

I feel as if i spoke too soon and ruined the whole afternoon

A feeling that we’re more than doomed is creeping up inside

And good as it was bound to be there’s something about you and me

It’s negative in chemistry which makes it hard to hide

And it’s no surprise when lights are falling

It’s bound to reawake some primal calling

It hasn’t been long enough to even begin to think it’s alright

I’m only concerned with the way we end up

I think I’ve been wrong enough to know when I’m right

So put up fight if you must but we know that our trust is undone

It hasn’t been long enough

What’s making you believe that the seventh time around is gonna be different

You know I’m not convinced

Long as the knot was tied problems always were around

And I’m not any different so I won’t listen
