• run along

• long drawn out

• draw the long bow

• as happy as the day is long

• leave well alone

• all along the line

• a long shot

• go a long way towards it

• cut a long story short

• on the long short tight side

• in name alone

• be get long in the tooth

• draw a long bow

• let alone it

• let well alone

• a lone wolf

• in the long run

• play along with it

• last laughs longest

• have a long face

• jolly him along

• be along for the ride

• rub along with him

• leave him alone

• the long arm of the law

• go along way towards

• not long for this world

• to cut a long story short

• a long haul

• the long and the short of it

• at long last
