Hank Snow › Lyrics › 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 the whole day long
It's been so long, darling, but now I'm coming 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 seeing you
It scares me through and 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 and I've kept every vow
I pray that you'll be waiting as you did in days gone by
It's been so long, darling, please don't blame me if I cry
