Been So Long lyrics

I won't be neglected
I won't be denied
The pleasure of your kissed
The pleasure of your smile

I think you take for granted
That I'll always be here
Just because I love you
It doesn't mean I won't disappear

(Been so long)
Of missin' you, baby
(Been so long)
Of missin' you, baby

Thoughts and mellow memories
Of once upon a time
Slowly creepin' on me
And they linger on my mind

Just let somebody love you
I just don't know why
Whenever I get close to you
You want to run and hide

(Been so long)
Of missin' you, baby
(It's been so long)
Of missin' you, baby

(It's been so long)
Of missin' you, baby
(It's been so long)
Of missin' you, baby

We began lovers' dance
The road was smooth to romance
And we sang love sweet songs
Every day

I believe that love would stay in my heart
Now it's torn all apart
It's gone away, I can't stay, I've got to say
I don't believe that you could do me this way

Now don't you understand
I'm in need of comfort
The comfort of your hand in mine
And what I feel inside
Why don't you come closer, I-I can't hide

(Been so long)
(Been so long) Can't hide
(Been so long)
(Been so long) It's too long, won't you come on, baby, won't you come home
(Been so long) See about me, see about me
(Been so long) Come on see about me, 'cause I keep tellin' you
(Been so long) I can't do, I can't do without you, without you
Oh, now don't ask me to
To do whatever, won't belong with your love, your love
(Been so long)
'Cause I won't do it
You can't make me do it
