Long, long and lonely nights

I cry my eyes out over you

Wond'ring if I did right

And why you left me with a broken heart



Oh, long, long and lonely nights

Oh, how I miss you, my dear

Please, please, come back to me

How I wish you were here



As I go along my lonely way I visualize your face

When I pass through (yeah!) my doorway

What's left for me to face?



Oh, long, long and lonely nights

I guess you're never coming home

Long, long and lonely nights

Ever since you've been gone



As I go along my lonely way I visualize your face

When I pass through (yeah!) my doorway

What's left for me to face?



Oh, oh, oh, long, long and lonely nights

I guess you're never coming home

Long, long and lonely nights

Ever since you've been gone



Please, please, come back to me

You've been gone too long
