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
