It's been a long time since I've seen you, baby Then you call came across my telephone Said old friends are meeting Will you come up maybe I said I'll try to make it You left me talking to a tone Ten years didn't seem so long Has it been that long, baby Has it been that long since I've gone away Many days and nights have passed since I've seen you, mama So many things have passed our eyes A ring has come and gone from my finger, baby I've stumbled, fallen down and yes I've even cried Chorus It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised you the moon It's been that long since I've whispered in your ear Let's celebrate now that we're home (Whisper) It's been a long time since I've seen you, yeah! You're a memory from the past That'll always last But life goes on, but it's been so long...etc. I think about the past, it's gone away so fast I'm still the same human being I've traveled many miles and all just the while I've learned about the things I've seen It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised you the moon It's been that long since I've whis- pered sweet in your ear Let's celebrate now that we're home It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby Since I've promised you the moon It's been that long since I've whis- pered in your ear Maybe I'll call ya or just see ya soon
