Love's Been Gone So Long Songtext
von Tower of Power

Love′s been gone so long
Oh, when will it come, oh
Lord, I know it'll win
But the waiting seems so long

Opportunity knocks
Oh, but sometimes it comes
And I′m afraid inside
I want a sweet lady
Right when I'm feeling blue
And when I'm alone

(Love′s been gone so long)
This time around, baby, yea
(Love′s been gone so long)
It's been gone so long, sweet child

There′s a memory in the wind
You'll feel sadness deep within
Love you never knew
Would ever turn on you


Opportunity knocks
Oh, but sometimes it comes
And I′m afraid inside
I want a sweet lady
Right when I'm feeling blue
And when I′m alone

(Love's been gone so long)
This time around, baby, yea
(Love's been gone so long)
It′s been gone so long, child

When you′re drifting day by day
Love might happened a single way
You might have to pay some dues
Oh, but sometimes
You got to lose

Opportunity knocks
Oh, but sometimes it comes
And I'm afraid inside
I want a sweet lady
Right when I′m feeling blue
And when I'm alone


(Love′s been gone so long)
This time around, baby, yea
(Love's been gone so long)
It′s been gone so long, sweet child
And I wanna tell you
That I miss you, baby

(Love's been gone so long)
(Gone so long)
Miss you, sweet child
I wish you'd come on back home, baby

(Love′s been gone so long)
Oh, girl
Cause I need you
I want you
