It's Been a Long, Long Time 1945

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 22 May 2004

Never thought that you would be
standing here so close to me.
There's so much I feel that I should say
but words can wait until some other day.

Just kiss me once and kiss me twice
then kiss me once again,
it's been a long, long time.
Haven't felt like this, my dear,
sine can't remember when,
it's been a long, long time.
You'll never know how many dreams
I dreamed about you
or just how empty
they all seemed without you.
So, kiss me once, then kiss me twice,
then kiss me once again,
it's been a long, long time.

Just kiss me once and kiss me twice
then kiss me once again,
it's been a long, long time.
Haven't felt like this, my dear,
sine can't remember when,
it's been a long, long time.
You'll never know how many dreams
I dreamed about you
or just how empty
they all seemed without you.
So, kiss me once, then kiss me twice,
then kiss me once again,
it's been a long, long time.
