Wendy McNeill - Such a Long Time lyrics

Well her face seemed genuine As she asked how i was doing But i felt a stiffening in my spine As her eyes strayed from what i was saying We used to lock ourselves away Swallowed up in conversation and bottles of wine But now there's just awkward silence Broken up by the stagnant phrase I haven't seen you in such a long time Oh her mouth still looks the same As it speaks my name But there's a distance in her tone that haunts me Chills me reminds me Of alberta's landscape in november Knowing there's months more to come Where i can run toward the horizon But not feel the warmth of the sun That burns my eyes with it's beauty As it reflects from the snow Can burn me at the same time As it chills to the bone Once upon a time i clung to pretending Cuz what i wanted most was a hollywood ending Now i see in her what it is i'm missing Silence can speak volumes if i care to listen A long walk through this winter has triggered my admission Oh..it's been a long time But her mouth still looks the same As it speaks my name Oh there's a distance in her tone that haunts me Chills me reminds me Of alberta's landscape in november Knowing there's months more to come Where i can run toward the horizon But not feel the warmth of the sun That burns my eyes with it's beauty As it reflects from the snow Can burn me at the same time As it chills to the bone
