Lyrics
It's been a while
Since I've heard the windchimes ringing by your door
It's been a while
Since I've felt your footsteps poundin' 'cross the floor
I've never wanted it more
And as the doorknob turns and the hinges squeak
I remember you never did lock the door on me
Then I see your face and no time takes place
'Fore you cross the threshold and catch me
In your embrace
My saving grace... because
I've been fighting this feeling of aching inside for so long
I didn't even notice
How many times I've said that "I'll be okay"
Without knowing when
Or if it was hopeless
But you are here
And so, somehow
I'm doing better now
It's been a while
Since I held you close without caring about the time
It's been a while
Since those storied days of innocence in nursery rhymes
It's been an uphill climb
And as you take my hand
And take me inside
I take back a piece of the child I left behind
And I'm born again
Just to see you smile
When you say "Sit down, love"
It's been a while. "Yeah"
It's been a while
I've been fighting this feeling of aching inside for so long
I didn't even notice
How many times I've said that "I'll be okay"
Without knowing when
Or if it was hopeless
But you are here
And so, somehow
I'm doing better now
Yeah, I've been stuck at rock bottom
With a shovel and despair
I've hit that wall so hard so many times
I forgot that it was there
Then I thought of the daydreams
And the long laughs
And the places we would go
Before the lights went... out
Guess you never know "with" 'til you're without
I've been fighting this feeling of aching inside for so long
I didn't even notice
How many times I've said that "I'll be okay"
Without knowing when
Or if it was hopeless
But you are here
And so, somehow
Since you are here
I can finally say out loud
I'm doing better now
I'm doing better now
Better now
