[Verse]
It's been so long, darling, since I had to go away
It's been so long, darling, and I'll never forget that day
Although you never mentioned it, you cried the whole day long
It's been so long, darling, but now I'm coming home

[Verse]
It's been so long, darling, since I gazed into your eyes
It's been so long, darling, do you really realize?
That just the thought of seeing you scares me through and through
It's been so long, darling, since I had a kiss from you

[Verse]
It's been so long, darling, but it won't be long now
It's been so long, darling, and 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, please don't blame me if I cry
