What Took You So Long

Did you spend your July in 2009

Chasing all of your dreams down, a long way from your hometown?

Did you fall hard in some spring break bar

On a beach in Daytona, drunk on love and Corona?

What did you do with all your hours and your minutes?

Thank God they were bringing you to me, 'cause

Right when I met you, girl, my world started spinning

Time slowed down, all I could think was

What took you so long?

Where you been all my life?

What road were you on

That led your heart to mine?

Who were you before you were in my arms?

Baby, I gotta know

What took you so long?

Now I'm never letting you go

Oh, but if it had been up to me, then

We'd have met a lot sooner, but God knew what he was doing

Girl, I wasn't ready, but I'm ready now

Forever took forever, now I just wanna slow it down

What took you so long?

Where you been all my life?

What road were you on

That led your heart to mine?

Who were you before you were in my arms?

Baby, I gotta know

What took you so long?

Now I'm never letting you go

Now, every morning that I'm waking up beside you

Sunshine kissing on your skin

I can't believe that heaven ever let me find you, I've said it before, and I'll say it again

What took you so long?

Where you been all my life?

What road were you on

That led your heart to mine?

Who were you before you were in my arms?

Baby, I gotta know

What took you so long?

Now I'm never letting you go
