Well, it′s been a longtime, babe
Honey, since you were loving me
I said it's been a longtime, babe
Honey, since you were loving me
I been alone ever since now, babe
Since the day you set me free

And when I saw you yesterday, babe
You know I tried to be so cool
Oh, when I saw you yesterday, babe
You know you tried to be so cool
But you know all the time I knew now, babe
I knew I′d been a fool

I was yours for just a while
But I still love you so
Yes I was yours for just a while, babe
But I still love you so
You know if I only had a second chance, babe

I would never, never let you go
I would never let you go, babe

Yes it's my time
It's going to be your time after awhile
Yes it is, babe
It′s your time, babe
But it′s going to be my time after a while

Yes, I want you to know
I ain't no little-bitty boy
And I ain′t no child
You know I ain't your child, babe
