I sit alone here waiting,
waiting for the line to ring
Rehearsing every word
I say to you
It's been a cold and empty day,
just like the one you went away
And I'm longing for what tomorrow
has in view
I'm reaching out to hold you,
but you're nowhere inside
It's been oh so long
since you've gone
Faith relies on memories when
the sun doesn't shine
It's been oh so long
since you've gone
You say it's not forever
But that's precisely how it feels
As I count the days
Like a child in
December
They say with joy there's
always sadness
And let's not forget the pain
And when we meet again,
we'll make it like our first
September
I don't know how much longer
I can make it alone
It's been oh so long
since you've gone
Took a lifetime to find you,
and now I'm left on my own
It's been oh so long
since you've gone
I give up all my treasures
Been walking endless miles
To bring forth our
precious rendezvous
And love will never die
I pray that you believe me,
I pray you understand
I've got a lifetime of love in my hands
I'm reaching out to hold you,
but you're nowhere inside
It's been oh so long
since you've gone
Faith relies on memories when
the sun doesn't shine
It's been oh so long
since you've gone
Took a lifetime to find you,
now I'm left on my own
It's been oh so long
It's been oh so long
It's been oh so long
Since you hung
