Too long a time

Momma says she doesn't want me hang'n around
Whatever you do now, don't let momma know
I slip out in the darkness, in the frosty moonlight
Fly across the silver morning meadow

Candle in the window
Shadow on the shade
I know my love lies waitin' inside

Close the door now
Have a taste of wine
Lord it's been too long a time
Oh, yes it has

Way down in the passing love
Feels so young and fine
Wrap your love around me
The wind is high

Every minute passing, I want to hold you
Every minute comes too long a time
Too long a time
Too long a time
