It's been a long time

since I rock and rolled

it's been a long time
since I did the stroll.
Ooh
let me get it back

let me get it back

let me get it back

baby
where I come from.

It's been a long time

been a long time

been a long lonely
lonely

lonely
lonely time
yes it has.
It's been a long time
since the book of love

I can't count the tears
of a life with no love.

Carry me back
carry me back

carry me back
baby where I came from.
It's been a long time

been a long time

been a long lonely
lonely

lonely
lonely time.
Seems so long
Since we walked in the moonlight

making vows that just can't work right.

Open your arms

open your arms

open your arms

baby
let my love
come running in.
It's been a long time

been a long time

been a long lonely
lonely

lonely
lonely time.
