It's Been So Long, Darling

(Ernest Tubb)



It's been so long darling since I had to go away

It's been so long darling and I can't forget that day

Although you never mentioned it you cried that whole day long

It's been so long darling but now I'm coming 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 seeing you it scares me through and through

It's been so long darling since I had a kiss from you.



It's been such a long time darling but it won't be long now

It's been so long darling and I've kept every vow

I pray that you'll be waiting as you did in days gone by

It's been such a long time darling please don't blame me if I cry...
