Hahaha! Well I hope the first 2 hours weren't too painful. 
The labels are best for shorter strings, like you noted. Instead, you can use the "Field Comments" option, which is available on all field types. That was intended for just that: adding larger blocks of text that'll appear underneath the form field.
To try this go to:
- Edit Form -> Fields tab
- click the little "edit" icon for the field you're interested in.
- In the edit field modal that appears, go to the second tab entitled "Textbox Settings" (or "Dropdown settings" or whatever your field type is)
- uncheck the "use default value" checkbox for the Field Comments field and add your text there. Then save and go add/edit a form submission to see how it looks.
Hope this helps!
