Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest)
For the longest time ([Marley:] Time)
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest)
For the longest 

If you said goodbye to me tonight 
There would still be music left to write 

What else could I do, I'm so inspired by you 
That hasn't happened (for the longest time) 

Once I thought my innocence was gone 
Now I know that happiness goes on 

I'll take my chances 
I forgot how nice romance is 

I haven't been there for the longest time 

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest)
For the longest time ([Marley:] Time)
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest)
For the longest 

I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall 
And the greatest miracle of all 

Is how I need you, and how you needed me too 

That hasn't happened (for the longest time) 

Maybe this won't last very long 
But you feel so right 
And I could be wrong 
Maybe I've been hoping too hard 
But I've gone this far 
And it's 

More than I'd hoped for 

Who knows how much further we'll go on 
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone 

I'll take my chances, I forgot how nice romance is 
I haven't been there (for the longest time) 

I had second thoughts at the start 
I said to myself, hold on to your heart 
Now I know the woman that you are 
You're wonderful so far 

And it's more than I'd hoped for 

I don't care what consequence it brings 
I have been a fool for lesser things 

I want you so bad, I think you ought to know that 
I intend to hold you 

For the longest time 

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest time) 

For the longest time 
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest time) 

For the longest (time) 
([Marley:] The longest time)
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest)
For the longest (time) 
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ([Jake:] The longest)

For the longest time
