Long World Lyrics - Christopher Cross

There's a brand new light in my life 

Shines after the candle is out at night 

It's gotten the best of me 

It's got my heart and it won't set it free 

I just can't tell you why 

If I did, well, it might be a lie 

It's a long world we're living in 

I've got to have her from beginning to end 

It's a long world we're living in 

I just can't live without her 

Does anybody know how it feels to want her this bad? 

So bad you'd give your life away 

There's gotta be somebody somewhere 

Who needs someone like I need you

I just can't tell you why 

If I did, well, it might be a lie 

And it's a long world we're living in 

I've got to have her from beginning to end 

It's a long world we're living in 

I just can't live without her 

I just can't live without her 

And I wait for the day to take her away in vain 

And I realize, I'll always feel the same 

There's a brand new light in my life 

Shines after the candle is out at night 

It's gotten the best of me 

It's got my heart and it won't set it free, yeah 

I just can't tell you why 

If I did, well, it might be a lie

It's a long world we're living in 

I've got to have her from beginning to end 

It's a long world we're living in 

I just can't live without her 

I just can't live without her 

Well, it's a long world we're living in 

And I've got to have her from beginning to end 

Well, it's a long world we're living in 

I just can't live without her 

I just can't live without her 

No, I, I just can't live without her
