It's Been So Long Darling

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 that whole day long It's been so long, darling but now I'm comin' home 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 seein' you It scares me through an' through It's been so long, darling since I had a kiss from you It's been so long, darling but it won't be long now It's been so long, darling but I've kept every vow I pray that you'll be waitin' 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 just the thought of seein' you It scares me through an' through It's been so long, darling since I had a kiss from you
