I got a word for you
Try it on for size
I've been ready to say it for awhile.

You know I'm not impulsive
It's not a change of heart
Just something way overdue, goodbye.

It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'
Yeah, we've grown so far apart.

You shouldn't be surprised
Already passed the point of no return
Just gotta cross the "t's", gotta dot the "i's"
And that will be the last bridge to burn.

It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'
Oh, yeah.

It's time that our lives go separate ways
It's time for our love to call it a day.

And it's been a long time comin'
It's been a long, long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'...
