One night to you
Lasted six weeks for me
Just a bitter little pill now
Just to try to go to sleep
No more waking up to innocence
Say hello to hesitance
To everyone I meet
Thanks to you years ago
I guess I'll never know
What love means to me
But oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
Left my childhood behind
In a roll away bed
Everything was so damn simple
Now I'm losing my head (losing my head)
Trying to cover up the damage
And pad out all the bruises
Do you not know I had it
So it didn't hurt to lose it
Didn't hurt to lose it
No, but oh
I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to-
Now I'm numb as hell and I can't feel a thing
But don't worry about regret or guilt 'cause I never knew your name
I just want to thank you, thank you
From the bottom of my heart
For all the sleepless nights
And for tearing me apart, yeah, yeah
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way
It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long, long, long, long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
'Cause it's gonna be a long, long way to happy
