"It's Been So Long, Darling" lyrics

It's Been So Long, Darling

It's been so long, darling
Since you had to go away
It's been so long, darling
And I'll never forget that day

Although I never mentioned it
I cried the whole day long
It's been so long, darling
But now you're coming home

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

You'll find me right here 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
Since I gazed into your eyes
It's been so long, darling
Do you really realize

That's 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

It's been so long, darling
But now you're coming home
