Long Time to Forget

It will take a long time to forget you, my dear

A long, long time I'll regret you're not here

A long time remembering when I had you so near

It will take a long time to forget.



There's a lot of people out a-walkin' tonight

Thinkin' about arms that held 'em so tight

Memories keep a-comin' in sight

Take a long, long time to forget.



It will take a long time to forget you, my dear

A long, long time I'll regret you're not here

A long time remembering when I had you so near

It will take a long time to forget.

I know a young fellow that lived down the street

He had a good woman everything was complete

He was understandin' yes, she was so sweet

It took a long, long time to forget.



It takes a long, long time to forget you, my dear

A long, long time I'll regret you're not here

A long time remembering when I had you so near

It will take a long time to forget.

Now there's an old sayin' you're as old as you feel

But time waits for no one and it never will

I keep a-wantin' and lovin' you still

It takes a long, long time to forget.



It take a long, long time to forget you, my dear

A long, long time I'll regret you're not here

A long time remembering when I had you so near

It will take a long time to forget.



It will take a long time to forget.

It will take a long time to forget...
