Linda's 1970 track "Long Long Time" has had, well a long, long time to simmer with plenty of listeners, but new ones are still discovering its meaning today. The emotional track sees Linda addressing topics — from being confused about love and questioning life to pining after someone that you can call your own.

To open up the song, Linda sings of things that she has heard from others: "Love will abide / Take things in stride." However, she immediately questions those notions by singing, "Sounds like good advice / But there's no one at my side."

She recites other mantras such as "And time washes clean / Love's wounds unseen," which she follows with another line of questioning: "That's what someone told me / But I don't know what it means."

Linda goes on to come to terms with the circumstances of her love, singing, "'Cause I've done everything I know / To try and make you mine / And I think I'm gonna love you / For a long, long time."

The emotional reckoning goes on through lines such as "Caught in my fears / Blinking back the tears / I can't say you hurt me / When you never let me near."

In the song's pre-chorus, it seems as though Linda recognizes that the way she envisioned love may not be the way things are. "And life's full of flaws / Who knows the cause? / Living in the memory / Of a love that never was," she sings.

Despite this recognition, Linda still longs for what was, or at least what was in her mind, when she sings the outro to the captivating track.

She belts out, "'Cause I've done everything I know / To try and change your mind / And I think I'm going to miss you / For a long, long time / 'Cause I've done everything I know / To try and make you mine / And I think I'm gonna love you / For a long, long time."
