Sara Douga - Long Time Coming

If I were a desperado out in West Texas I’d have me a pretty black mare
I’d call her Gypsy; she’d take us everywhere

Instead I come to these buildings five days a week
I sit here and listen to these big shots speak
I write down what they say but I really don’t care
I’m just sitting here dreaming about my getaway mare

Cause the truth is I’m tired
Of living this everyday life
It’s high time I hit the road running
Mmm it’s been a Long Time Coming

If I were really happy I’d smile at you
I’d tell you I loved you with my eyes
Instead when we talk I speak these lonely lies
And at home at night I cry

Cause the truth is I’m tired
Of living this everyday life
It’s high time I hit the road running
Ooh baby, it’s been a Long Time Coming

So I packed up all my pistols and I saddled up my mare
My heart’s steady racing to get out of here
I’ve got whiskey in a glass in case I start to feel the pain
And a rosary in my pocket to keep away the rain

Cause the truth is I’m ready to fight
My way out of this everyday life
It was high time I hit the road running
Bye-bye baby, it’s been a Long Time Coming

It’s been a Long Time Coming
