What Took You So Long - Leon Timbo
Written by:Leon Timbo Seymore/Tyrese Gibson/Jevon Duval Hill
Babe I met you physically
But there was something so familiar about you spiritually
And while we were talking getting to know each other
I won't waste your time because you're already mine yeah
Could we have kissed four times yeah
Is that why you remind me of a better life oh
Maybe it's only my imagination
Cos there's something familiar babe
Something familiar babe
I already loved you
Before I ever met you
So what took you so long babe
Took you so long
I already loved you
Before I ever met you
So what you so long babe
Took you so long babe
Before time began
I had a conversation with god about you
How I would meet you later on
He gave me your name and
Said I'd meet you around 2010
At the park about six AM
While I'm jogging
And I see your smile and girl
I see the part of your heart
You ready for love
Not this superficial thing the world's gotten to
I see the real you girl
So what took you so long babe
I've been here all the while girl
I already loved you
Before I ever met you
So what took you so long babe
Took you so long babe
I already loved you
Before I ever met you
So what took you so long babe
Took you so long babe
Can I have a meaning
Just a single meaning
To say that I'd be here forever
Can I have a meaning
Just a single meaning
To satisfy my girl forever
I already loved you
Before I ever met you
So what took you so long babe
Took you so long babe
I already loved you
Before I ever met you
So what took so long babe
Took you so long babe
I'm happy you're here finally girl
