ItâÂÂs Been So Long, DarlinâÂÂ
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
Since I had to go away
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
And IâÂÂll neâÂÂer forget that day
Although you never mentioned it
You cried that whole daylong
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
But now IâÂÂm cominâ home
(Chorus)
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
Since I gazed into your eyes
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
Do you really realize
That the thought of seeinâ you
It scares me through and through
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
Since I had a kiss from you
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
But it wonâÂÂt be long now
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
But IâÂÂve kept every vow
I pray that youâÂÂll be waiting
As you did in days gone by
ItâÂÂs been so long, darlinâÂÂ
Please donâÂÂt blame me if I cry
(Repeat chorus)
