It's been so long darling since I had to go away

It's been so long darling and I can't forget that day

Although you never mentioned it you cried that whole day long

It's been so long darling but now I'm coming home

It's been so long darling since I gazed into your eyes

It's been so long darling do you really realize

Just the thought of seeing you it scares me through and through

It's been so long darling since I had a kiss from you

[ steel ]

It's been so long darling but it won't be long now

It's been so long darling but I've kept every vow

I pray that you'll be waiting as you did in days gone by

It's been so long darling please don't blame me if I cry

It's been so long darling...
