It's Been Too Long

It's been too long
 I've been waiting patiently
 To share your company, baby
 You've been gone too long
 (Even though) And even though we're still apart
 You're in my heart
 I thought we had meaning (Oh yeah, girl)
 Thought my one love had been found (Here's another)
 Here's another lonely evening (Another lonely evening)
 Oh yeah, and you're nowhere around, baby
 You said tonight that we would share our love
 (We would share our love)
 And now you say that something else came up
 Tell me honestly what's on your mind
 Does another lover occupy your time?
 My heart disbelieves (I don't believe it)
 So set my heart at ease (Oh, girl)
 Let's get together this week, oh yeah
 Girl, it's been too long
 And though I miss you more each day
 I just can't go on this way
 You've been gone too long (You've been gone)
 And now I'm making you aware (Making you aware)
 That I will not be your spare
 (So tell me what went wrong, oh baby)
 Tell me what went wrong
 Maybe what I'm asking for
 You can't give me anymore
 It's been too long (Yeah, yeah)
 And the promises you made to me
 You never seem to keep
 We talk every other day (We talk)
 And you say (And you say) that you will stop by
 I'm waiting for you to stop by
 When we plan on the phone (When we make plans)
 You postpone (You postpone) and I'm alone tonight
 Once again, I'm alone
 Tonight, oh, pretty baby
 I'm not trying to set the pace
 Manipulate or dominate your life
 I don't want to run your life
 (But I) I just want you to understand
 And make some plans to share some of your time
 (To share some of your time)
 It's been too long
 It's been too long
 Girl, I've been waiting here
 Wishing that you were near
 You've been gone too long, hey girl
 You been gone too long (Too long)
 It's been too long, yeah
 Tell me what went wrong
 Been too long, yeah
 It's been too long
 Been too long, girl
