long lost lover

The Three Degrees

Long lost, long lost, lover of mine
Lover of mine
I've been waiting, anticipating
The day you return
Long lost, long lost, lover of mine
It's good to see you
I really need you here with me

I'm sorry for the things I did to you
I know now I acted like a fool (like a fool)
How you feel? How's the world treat you?
Have you been lonely for me too?
Why don't you come on home to me (come on home to me baby) ?
I need your loving
Baby, can't you see?

(Long lost) long lost, (long lost) long lost
(lover of mine) lover of mine
(I've been waiting), yeah, (anticipating)
The day you return
(Long lost) long lost, (long lost) long lost
(lover of mine) lover of mine
(It's good to see you), ooh
I really need you here with me

Now it's been so long since I talked to you
You sure got a lot of catching up to do (Too hoo ooh)
Now I know I ain't been doing so good
Cause I ain't been in love like I should
If you would only come on home to me (come on home to me baby)
This time we'll make it
Just you wait and see

(Long lost) long lost, (long lost) long lost
(lover of mine) lover of mine
(I've been waiting), yeah, (anticipating)
The day you return
Talkin' 'bout long lost (long lost), long lost (long lost)
Lover of mine (lover of mine)
Sweet, sweet love of mine (It's good to see you) yeah?
(I really need you here with me)

(Long lost) long lost, (long lost) long? (lover of mine)
Long, long, long lost, lover of mine?
