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, yeah)
