What Took You So Long

Did you spend your July in 2009Chasin' all of your dreams downA long way from your hometown?Did you fall hard in some spring break barOn a beach in DaytonaDrunk on love and Corona?What did you do with all your hours and your minutes?Thank God, they were bringin' you to me 'causeRight when I met you, girl, my world started spinnin'Time slowed down, all I could think wasWhat took you so long?Where you been all my life?What road were you onThat led your heart to mine?Who were you before you were in my arms?Baby, I gotta knowWhat took you so long?Now I'm never lettin' you goOh, but if it had been up to me thenWe'd have met a lot soonerBut God knew what he was doin'Girl, I wasn't ready but I'm ready nowForever took forever but now I just wanna slow it downWhat took you so long?Where you been all my life?What road were you onThat led your heart to mine?Who were you before you were in my arms?Baby, I gotta knowWhat took you so long?Now I'm never lettin' you goNow every morning that I'm wakin' up beside youSunshine kissin' on your skinI can't believe that heaven ever let me find youI've said it before and I'll say it againWhat took you so long?Where you been all my life?What road were you onThat led your heart to mine?Who were you before you were in my arms?Baby, I gotta knowWhat took you so long?Now I'm never lettin' you go
