You Went Away Too Long Songtext
Fall into your arms is what my heart says
I ain't much for dreaming, no
Don't do that, boy, no harm is what my mama says
'Cause I ain't one for scheming, no
Look into my eyes (Boy)
Don't you realize?
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
I ain't much for dreaming, no
Don't do that, boy, no harm is what my mama says
'Cause I ain't one for scheming, no
Look into my eyes (Boy)
Don't you realize?
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You packed your bags with all my fallen tears, boy
And left my body yearning, oh, I
But weeks turned into months, turned into years, boy
And pages have a way of turning, mm
Look into my eyes (Boy)
Don't you realize
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
And, baby, if I'd known you were really coming back to me
Can't you see? (I could've held on)
Just a little bit longer (I could've held on)
Just a little bit stronger for you, yeah
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
(Said you went away) You went away too long to wait for you, honey (Too long)
And almost enough to forget you
(Said you went away) You went away too long to wait for you, honey (Too long)
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey (Too long)
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You packed your bags with all my fallen tears, boy
And left my body yearning, oh, I
But weeks turned into months, turned into years, boy
And pages have a way of turning, mm
Look into my eyes (Boy)
Don't you realize
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
And, baby, if I'd known you were really coming back to me
Can't you see? (I could've held on)
Just a little bit longer (I could've held on)
Just a little bit stronger for you, yeah
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
And almost enough to forget you
(Said you went away) You went away too long to wait for you, honey (Too long)
And almost enough to forget you
(Said you went away) You went away too long to wait for you, honey (Too long)
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey (Too long)
And almost enough to forget you
You went away too long to wait for you, honey
