Michael Cavanaugh - Long Enough Lyrics
She's poured drinks in this dump for 20 yearsHer hair smells like smoke and her hands like beerTwo guys are fuming looks like a fightShe wonders how she does it night after nightAnother whiskey, another bourbonAnother day in a world of hurtingShe swears there must be more to lifeShe said it's been long enoughSince I felt worth more than a few bucks on the barIt's been long enough that I've pushed my dreams asideI've buried my hopesAnd I've wasted my timeFor long enough, long enoughShe drives up the hill just a mile awayWhere the grass is green and the flowers layShe reads her parent's names across the stonesAnd though her memories hold her hostage, she's knows it's time to goThe wind is howling, the sky is cryingShe don't know where, but she keeps drivingShe knows there must be more to lifeShe said it's been long enoughThat I've told myself I can never leave this placeIt's been long enough that I've stayed between the linesI'm gonna take a new roadCause I've taken my timeFor long enough, long enoughI used to let my demons stop meBut I won't live my life in fearI know there's something better out thereAnd I know that it's not hereCause It's been long enoughSince I've felt worth more than a few bucks on the barIt's been long enough that I've pushed my dreams asideI'm holding on to my hopesAnd I'm not letting goCause this time will be differentThis time I'll hold onFor long enoughWords and Music by Michael Cavanaugh © 2017
