It'll Take A Long Time

It'll Take A Long Time - Sandy Denny

Oh it's like a storm at sea

And everything is lost

And the fretful sailors calling out their woes

As to the waves they're tossed

Oh they are all gentlemen

And never will they know

If there is a reason each of them

Must go to join the cruel flow

And it'll take a long long time

It'll take a long long time

It'll take a long long time

Oh it'll take such a long long time

There is no need for rules

There's no one to score the game

And there is no body living in this town

As even knows its name

And it'll take such a long long time

It'll take a long long time

It'll take a long long time

Long long time
