John L. Keck - How Long

How long, how long has it been?
So long now i don't remember when
I could have used a good friend way back then
Oh, how long has been?

We buried her on the hill
The air was cold and the sky was still
I don't think i ever will
Go back up on that hill

When i turned 18 i went on the road
Searching for you and the live that you stole
That's what they talk about when our story's told
Down that long twisted road

Finally i returned to our home
Clearly i was all alone
Crawled up the stairs and turned on some rolling stones
Here, in our abandoned home

Someday you will bury me on that hill
It's inevitable i know you will
All those dreams going unfulfilled
Won't you please bury me on that hill

But before i die
I will raise my fist up the sky
I will ask your god why
Promise you this before i die
Promise you this before i die

So how long has it been?
So long i don't remember when
I could have used you way back when
How long, how long has it been?
