Bernard Ighner - You Been Away Too Long lyrics

[Intro] If you knew How much I miss you [Verse 1] You've been away too long You shouldn't stay so long Now my life is much too empty When you're gone Now how you wouldn't stay so long You could not stay so long If you know how much I miss you babe [Pre-Chorus 1] When you're gone All day long And every night it's you I'm thinkin' of [Chorus 1] We belong Like the stars to the night If you looked in your heart You would know that I'm right so Don't make me wait so long How could you take so long Everything seemed so empty baby And life wasn't meant to be lonely baby Oh, darlin' you know it's you only When you're gone [Pre-Chorus 2] I sit back all day long Each and every night It's only you That I'm thinkin' of [Chorus 2] We belong Like the stars in the night If you looked in your heart You would know that I'm right So why should you make me wait so long How could you take so long You know that everything seems so empty And life wasn't meant to be lonely And I'll let you know, it's you only When you're gone [Post-Chorus/Outro] Oh, baby Yeah, daddy When you— When you're gone Who could stand it? Knowin' the kind of love you got What woman could take it When she's had [?] of your love
