It's been so long, darlin'
It's been such a long time
since I gazed into your eyes
It's been so long, darlin'
I just wonder if you really realize
That now, now just the very thought
of seeing you again
scares me,
scares me through and through.
It's been so long, darlin'
Since I had a kiss from you
It's been so long, darlin'
It's been such a long time
since I had to go away
And if I live to be a hundred years old,
I never will forget that day.
Although I never mentioned it,
I cried that whole day long.
I feel like I've been gone forever,
but now I'm coming home.
Oh, it's been such a long time, darling,
but it won't be long now.
And I want you to know
that while I've been gone,
I've kept every single vow.
I just hope you're still gonna love me
as much as you did when
you told me goodbye.
It's been such a long time, darling,
please don't blame me if I cry.
It's been so long, darling.
It's been such a long time
since I gazed into your eyes.
It's been so long, darling.
I just wonder if you really realize
that now, now just the very thought
of seeing you again
Scares me,
scares me through and through
It's been so long, darling
Since I had a kiss from you you
