How slow the days drag by With you around, they used to fly Can't think of anything to do 'Cause all I think about is you Try to keep as busy as I can Dreaming of the day that you'll be back again Oh, how I long to be with you again Oh, how I long to be with you again Oh, how I long to be with you again Your letters make me feel Our love is very much for real It's lonely in the night Without your arms to hold me tight Try to wear a smile, but feeling blue Waiting for the day I'll be once more with you Oh, how I long to be with you again Oh, how I long to be with you again Oh, how I long to be with you again I know I'll feel much stronger Knowing you're beside me I can't stop the longing, oh Burning deep inside of me Counting all the hours you're away Hope when you come back, you're gonna wanna stay Oh, how I long to be with you again Oh, how I long to be with you again Oh, how I long to be with you again (Oh baby, yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, how I long to be with you again (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, how I long to be with you again (Oh baby, yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, how I long to be with you again (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, how I long to be with you again (Oh baby, yeah)
