It's Been So Long Darling

It's Been So Long Darling - Ernest Tubb

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 that whole day long

It's been so long darling

But now I'm comin' 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 seein' you

It scares me through an' 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

But I've kept every vow

I pray that you'll be waitin'

As you did in days gone by

It's been so long darling

Please don't blame me if I cry

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 seein' you

It scares me through an' through

It's been so long darling

Since I had a kiss from you
