It's been a long time

Now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

Oh how I've been alone

Wait till I come back to your side

We'll forget the tears we've cried



But if your heart breaks

Don't wait, turn me away

And if your heart's strong

Hold on, I won't delay

Wait till I come back to your side

We'll forget the tears we've cried



I feel as though

You ought to know

That I've been good

As good as I can be

And if you do

I'll trust in you

And know that you

Will wait for me



It's been a long time

Now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

Oh how I've been alone

Wait till I come back to your side

We'll forget the tears we've cried



I feel as though

You ought to know

That I've been good

As good as I can be

And if you do

I'll trust in you

And know that you

Will wait for me



It's been a long time

Now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

Oh how I've been alone

Wait till I come back to your side

We'll forget the tears we've cried



It's been a long time

Now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

Oh, how I've been alone
