Been So Long
Brian McKnight · U Turn
And i felt got the reasons why
Why i went away
Funny how u open that door
And asked me walks in
The only think that i know for sure
Exactely how long has been
[1] - Cause baby has been so long
Since i had u here with me
Baby is been so long
Baby come to me
Do you ever think of us
And the way it used to be
Day and night all over ur touch
Of the things u do to me
They say is just like writing a pad
Somethings u never forget
U know all the things that I'd like
Lets see how much harder it gets
[Repeat 1]
They playin my song
It might be wrong
I hope that this night dont end
It might be right
Right here tonight
What do u say, can u stay
[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 1]
