Distant lover, lover

Oooh, so many miles away

Heaven knows that I've longed for you

Every night, every night

And sometimes I yearn through the day

Distant lover

You should think about me

Say a prayer for me

Please, please baby

You should think about me sometime

Think about me here in misery

As I reminisce, through our joyful summer together

Promisies we made or the day you left child

And all of a sudden everything seemed to explode

Now I gaze out my window, sugar

Cuz I'm lonesome now



Distant Lover

Sugar, how can you treat my heart so mean and cruel

Didn't you know sugar that

Every moment that I spent with you

I treasured it like it was precious jewels



Hey baby, lord have mercy



You have to come back to me baby

I can't live without your lovin'

Something I wanna say

When you left and took all of me with you

Baby please, please, please

Won't you come on back

No one could ever be like you

Can't you come on back to me baby

Please baby, come back to me

Make this house a home again
