The Longer it Takes

Written by Pat Bunch & Teresa

Slammin’ doors don’t make me quit
Those pretty pink rejection slips
I turn them over and make a list
of things to do I can’t resist
A challenge when I’m close enough
to almost taste and touch

Chorus:
The Longer It Takes, the stronger I get
The stronger I get, the farther I go
The farther I go, I’m tired and yet
The Longer It Takes, the farther I go, the stronger I get

They can’t break me only bend me
Character, I’m building plenty
When it’s my turn I’ll be ready
Out there running slow and steady
Wins the race and every mile
Gets me closer in the meanwhile

(Repeat Chorus) (Solo)

Just when I think I’ve reached the end
That’s when the cycle starts again

(Repeat Chorus)

The Longer It Takes, the stronger I get.....
