Lyrics

My heart and soul and body too
Keep missin' you (What am I to do?)
The day's so long and the night's so rough
'Cause it seems like I (Can't forget your love)
It feels just like I'm gonna fall apart
And I don't know how (I can make it now)
So, come back
You've been gone too long
You're on my mind
And it's hard to carry on
Come back
You've been away too long
My heart is weak from being strong
I thought my sad face would make you stay
And it took me out (When you left that day)
I sit and stare but no one's there
In the room outside (That we used to share)
When you're not here, it's a quiet place
It's a lonely house (Just an empty space)
You gotta come back
You've been gone too long
You're all I need
And it's hard to carry on
Come back
You been away too long
My heart is weak from being strong
Come back
You've been gone so long
I love you so
And I betcha I can show you
Come back
I got a love so strong
I'm missin' you, my baby
Ooh ooh ooh...
I need you back now
(You gotta come back), gotta come back
And I want you love
(Please come back), please come back
I need you back right now
(You gotta come back), gotta come back
And I want your love, my baby (my baby)
Come back
You've been gone too long
You're on my mind
And it's hard to carry on
Come back
You been away too long
My heart is weak from being strong
Come back
You've been gone so long
I love you so
And I betcha I can show you
Come back
I got a love so strong
I'm missin' you, my baby
Come back
You've been gone too long
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Come back
I got a love so strong
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Come back
You've been gone too long
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Come back
I got a love so strong...
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Come back
You've been gone too long
You're on my mind
And it's hard to carry on
Come back
