[Verse 1]It was night-time, it was déjà vuIn the limelight, it was only youNow you're racing, racing, racing, racing through my mindI was winter till you took my handHeard you whisper, then the spring beganNo more wasting, wasting, wasting, wasting precious time[PreChorus]What took you so long?Feels like I've known you for all my lifeTell me where you've been all my lonely nightsYou're just what I've been waiting onBut what took you so long?Looking at you now, thinking, "What the hell?"Can't imagine me with somebody elseWhen it's been you all along[Chorus]What took you so long? WhoaHohHohWhat took you so long? WhoaWhoaHoh[Verse 2]I was angry at the universeAt the others, got to love you firstSo I made you, made you, made you, made you, made you mineNow the summers never felt like thisAnd the colors never looked like thisNo more, no more wasting time[PreChorus]What took you so long?Feels like I've known you for all my lifeTell me where you've been all my lonely nightsYou're just what I've been waiting onBut what took you so long?Looking at you now, thinking, "What the hell?"Can't imagine me with somebody elseWhen it's been you all along[PreChorus]What took you so long? WhoaHohHoh[Chorus]What took you so long?Feels like I've known you for all my lifeTell me where you've been all my lonely nightsYou're just what I've been waiting onBut what took you so long?Looking at you now, thinking, "What the hell?"Can't imagine me with somebody elseWhen it's been you all along[Outro]What took you so long?
