long time coming

• (bkz: the delays)
  
  tore it up and walked away
  why'd you wanna go do that for?
  threw your lego in the lake
  why'd you wanna go do that for?
  
  and your a long time coming
  a long time coming home.
  do you see me reeling
  off the lines i've seen your
  i've seen your eyes.
  
  how can you grow old you were my triumph
  how can you grow old you were my triumph
  
  turn your face into the squall.
  why'd you wana go do that for?
  you carved your name into the wall
  why'd you wana go do that for?
  
  and your a long time coming
  a long time coming home.
  do you see me reeling
  off the lines i've seen your
  i've seen your eyes.
  
  how can you grow old you were my triumph
  how can you grow old you were my triumph
  
  but your a long time coming
  a long time coming home.
  do you see me reeling
  off the lines i've seen your
  i've seen your eyes.
  
  how can you grow old you were my triumph
  how can you grow old you were my triumph
  
  but your a long time coming
  a long time coming home.
  
  been a long time coming
  a long time coming home

• maria mena'nın apparently unaffected albümünden bir şarkı.
  
  your patronizing stare can watch me heal.
  what i would give for you to tae the wheel
  it's just been a long time coming
  the strong resemblance to my mother's womb
  is the reason why i will not leave this room
  it's been a long time coming
  
  the lack of self-esteem has grown on me
  i'm not as strong as i appear to be
  it's been a long time coming
  
  my lullaby sounds more like distant screams
  i wake up sleep deprived after every dream
  it's been a long time coming
  
  my flesh makes little sense compared to yours
  i wish my restlessness would open doors
  it's just been a long time coming

• bruce springsteen'in 2005 tarihli solo uzunçaları devils and dust'ın 4. şarkısı (albümde long time comin' şeklinde geçiyor). en iyi solo akustik parçalarından biri. ama springsteen on broadway'de patron, babasıyla olan ailevi ilişkisinden bahsettikten sonra gözleri dolarak ve burnunu çekerek öyle yorumlar ki bunu, kanımca duygu yoğunluğunu en üst düzeyde yaşatan versiyonu budur. ruhlar, biz onları göremesek de kalır, sevaplar ve günahlar babadan oğula geçer... ağzına sağlık üstat.
  
  well now down below and pullin' on my shirt
  yeah i got some kids of my own
  well if i had one wish for you in this god forsaken world, kid
  it'd be that your mistakes will be your own
  that your sins will be your own
  
  it's been a long time comin', my dear
  it's been a long time comin', but now it's here
  and now it's here...
