Darling, let me spend a moment with youI want both of us to share what's on my mindThere's been a change in you and I'm so happyFor I haven't felt this way in a long, long timeThere's been something in your past and now it's dyingIt's kept you from loving me all this timeI can tell that he don't worry you anymoreAnd after all these years you're really mineYour love's been a long time comingAll the hurts just turn to lovingAnd I thank the Lord it's not too lateIt took a long time working it outBut now it's here and there's no doubtYour love's been a long time coming but it's here to stayYour love's been a long time comingAll the hurts just turn to lovingAnd I thank the Lord it's not too lateIt took a long time working it outBut now it's here and there's no doubtYour love's been a long time coming but it's here to stayYour love's been a long time coming but it's here to stay
