Lletres: Ernest Tubb. It's Been So Long Darling.

It's been so long, darling since I had to go away
It's been so long, darling and I'll never forget that day
Although you never mentioned it
You cried that whole day long
It's been so long, darling but now I'm comin' 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 seein' you
It scares me through an' through
It's been so long, darling since I had a kiss from you

It's been so long, darling but it won't be long now
It's been so long, darling but I've kept every vow
I pray that you'll be waitin'
As you did in days gone by
It's been so long, darling, please don't blame me if I cry

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 seein' you
It scares me through an' through
It's been so long, darling since I had a kiss from you
