I stay at home
You know I drink to pass the time away
But it only brings me back to yesterday.
I put the coffee on
And I listen to the radio
But keep looking at the telephone.
I've been thinking about you for a long, long time,
I've been sinking in deep blue and my future's black,
Oh, baby, come back.
No matter what I do
I just can't forget the Love we had
But I can't erase my mind and just forget about you, no.
It's gone beyond all that
And I've got to have your love again
'Cause I got to make my heart stop breaking.
I've been thinking about you for a long, long time,
I've been sinking in deep blue and my future's black,
Oh, baby, come back.
You're all I think about, baby come back.
La, la, chu-la, la...
The days and weeks fly by
And I watch my feelings slowly die
I can feel the hope inside me pass away.
I lost my health, I lost my love
I lost my will to live.
I'm a heart-broken fugitive.
I've been thinking about you for a long, long time,
I've been sinking in deep blue and my future's black,
I been thinking about you baby,
Not easy living without you baby.
I've been thinking about you
And I keep hoping you'll come back.
I keep hoping you'll come back.
You never treated me right,
All we ever did was fight
I thought I couldn't live without you baby
But something happened to me last night.
spoken: You wanna know what it was?
Uh-huh, OK, I'll tell you.
I planned to end it all
And I went back to my hotel room
And I locked the door closed with a broom
Opened up the drawer
And I reached inside to get my gun
But I found a Bible from the Gideons.
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
(I wonder how it got there)
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
(I didn't put it there, I didn't even know it was there)
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
(Surprise, surprise)
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
(Some things you can't ever figure)
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
(Like this)
And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.
(So long, goodbye)
