    Story Behind the Song
    A poignant personal document, 'Been A While' describes the emotional turmoil of a lover left alone without explanation, with a focus on healing the wounds as opposed to revelling in them. For this recording, Keith enlisted the talents of old friends Jen Minnich on cello, with Allen R Kenney assisting with cello arrangement

    Lyrics
    Been a while
    Music and lyrics by Keith Moriarty

    It’s been a little while since I looked your way
    And it’s been even longer since I’ve had much to say
    I keep staring at the phone and hoping it will ring
    I’m ready to start talking now but it hurts where I had wings

    I’ve spent all this time bitching about art
    But honesty just isn’t worth the price of a broken heart

    It’s been about a minute now since I have been inside
    And it’s been even longer since I have been denied
    I just got a karma payoff and I’m dishing out the cash
    I’m trying to enjoy it because I’m about to crash

    I’ve spent all this time bitching about it
    But it wasn’t even over when I had to deal with it

    It’s been a little while since I have seen your face
    And I’m always thinking about the words I can’t erase
    I know that we can’t go back to the moments we let pass
    But all things being equal it’s time face our past

    I’ve spent all this time bitching about them
    But if I could only change this, I’d never bitch again

    Well it’s been a few weeks now since we said we’d meet again
    And it’s been even longer since we said that we were friends
    I’m trying not to think about if we can ever make this right
    I just don’t want to think this will never be all right

    I’ve spent all this time bitching about you
    But maybe it's time I considered learning something new
