It's Been So Long (Since We Said Goodbye)

George Jones · Singing the Blues [Mercury] [1965]

(George Jones)



It's been so long since we said goodbye

I guess that's the reason why I sit and cry

I miss you baby every day and night

It's been so long since I held you tight.



Everything's different since you went away

I miss you baby every night and day

I can't help feeling that you ought to know

I love you baby and I miss you so.



Nothing ever seems the same

My sunshine has turned to rain

Every time I hear your name

My heart becomes the burning flame.



It's been so long since we said goodbye

I guess that's the reason why I sit and cry

I miss you baby every day and night

It's been so long since I held you tight.

It's been so long since I held you tight...
