Discover the story of the song > It Won T Be Long Edit – Alison Moyet

The protagonist is waiting for a day when nobody will come and ruin her peaceful place. She's just biding her time, but she knows that changes are on the way and it won't take long for things to be different. She talks about how everything her partner has said to her won't keep bothering her and fill her mind with noise. She describes how she won't see her partner on the bathroom or bedroom floor anymore, in the messy aftermath of their fights or intimate moments. She knows that soon all of this will be gone and she won't have to deal with it anymore.
