It s been a long time
Now I m coming back home
I ve been away now
Oh how I ve been alone
Wait till I come back to your side
We ll forget the tears we ve cried

But if your heart breaks
Don t wait, turn me away
And if your heart s strong
Hold on, I won t delay
Wait till I come back to your side
We ll forget the tears we ve cried

I feel as though
You ought to know
That I ve been good
As good as I can be
And if you do
I ll trust in you
And know that you
Will wait for me

It s been a long time
Now I m coming back home
I ve been away now
Oh how I ve been alone
Wait till I come back to your side
We ll forget the tears we ve cried

I feel as though
You ought to know
That I ve been good
As good as I can be
And if you do
I ll trust in you
And know that you
Will wait for me

It s been a long time
Now I m coming back home
I ve been away now
Oh how I ve been alone
Wait till I come back to your side
We ll forget the tears we ve cried

It s been a long time
Now I m coming back home
I ve been away now
Oh, how I ve been alone
