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

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

It's been a long time

Now I'm coming back home

I've been away now

Oh how, I've been alone
