It`s been a long time since I rock and rolled,
It`s been a long time since I did the Stroll.
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
It`s been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.
It`s been a long time since the book of love,
I can`t count the tears of a life with no love.
Carry me back, carry me back,
Carry me back, baby, where I come from.
It`s been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
Making vows that just can`t work right.
Open your arms, opens your arms,
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.
It`s been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
