Early Days of Shane, refers to 1995 thru 2005. These were the discovery years that I recognize as the days of which I learned to put written songs in album form

So far there are 3 installments of unique stories regarding songs: “It’s Safe To Be You”, Chapter 2 _ “That’s The Way” and Chapter 3 _ “The Bluesman“. Chapters are loaded with photos highlighting each story, how the song came about and developed to be what it is today on albums by Shane O’Brien and O’Briens Edge. Some Chapters you may find two recorded versions in the Chapters display of that particular song. 1 version of the song as it was originally being written/recorded and the 2nd rendition may be Shane playing it for that Chapter featured as it's highlight. There may be many folks who read and see this new feature and say to themselves “Hey I took that picture” or “I recorded that track with him” or “I was at that gig“. To those particular friends I say “Don't fret, I don't forget"

Story behind the song
It will be a long, long time before anything as special as a missed life and love opportunity is unrecognized and allowed to slip through someones fingers...
Lyrics
A Long, Long Time ©2001 By Shane O’Brien ___________________________________________________________ Note that this set of lyrics pertain to the original King Me Baby rendition Of A Long, Long Time. Therefor there will be some variance in this Acoustic Duo Cut ___________________________________________________________ I found out many years ago, when your baby let you go Don’t fight the feeling, it’ll only break your heart Don’t mean to say I told you But you knew it from the start Seams to always work out this way Just as sure as the sun comes up in the mornin’ I don’t want to cry no more, ‘cause I know it don’t do no good I’ll just suck it up and take it, ‘cause I know I’m a man And I thought I understood I never thought that it would end this way I was taken by surprise, when I heard my baby say She told me I had to go now, she said I had to get outta town And don’t bother asking me, she said she couldn’t explain I don’t think you meant to hurt me now I was just one of those things --------- She said. Now as I look back She said don’t hurt yourself by trippin’ and thinkin’ All women are the same. It’s that attitude where you’re slippin’ Recognize it or you’ll only have, only have yourself to blame It’s a long, long time. Just a long time baby What a long, long time. I love you anyway I’m still here for you darling, it’s a long time healin’ ya
