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
