It's Been a While

When you broke down, I knew that day

That you were on the way out

And you were the one that I, I needed to find

I'd better patch that levee, babe, and change your mind

I'm gonna take a train back to Texas

The freight-liner, won't you call my name?

'Cause it's been a while, no

It's been a while, no

Since I've seen your face

Oh, the anger, oh Lord, the anger

Took a fall and it's like I'm a stranger

You're still the best thing that I've ever found

So turn the wheels at the quickest of time

Put the wind on my back, send me right down the line

'Fore she is gone, it won't be long

I'm gonna take a train back to Texas

The freight-liner, won't you call my name?

It's been a while, no

It's been a while, no

Since I've seen your face

'Cause it's been a while, oh

'Cause it's been a while, oh

It's been a while, oh

A while, oh

It's been a while, oh

A while, oh

Oh, since I've seen your face

A while, oh

Oh, since I've seen your face

A while, oh
