Verse 1 I kept your jumper folded on the shelf Started talking to the fridge like it’s somebody else Left the porch light on till the last moth quit Your side of the bed still holds the shape of it Chorus How long, baby, how long will it take? How long, baby, for God’s sake? How long is it gonna be Before you start to see? How long, baby? Verse 2 I fixed the gate you swore I’d never fix Paid the water bill with both our names on it Rang your sister, all she did was breathe Said “give it time”, well, I’ve given it, believe me Chorus (as above) Bridge And maybe you can see it fine Maybe that’s the thing I can’t say out loud Maybe you’ve been looking all this time Just not at me, just not now Chorus How long, baby, how long will it take? How long, baby, for God’s sake? How long is it gonna be Before you start to see? How long, baby? [guitar interlude] Final line (stripped back) How long, baby... how long?
