Let's celebrate, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, oh
Let's celebrate, yeah
It's been a long time since I've seen you, baby
Then your call came across my telephone
You said that old friends are meeting
"Will you come up maybe?"
I said I'd tried to make it
You left me talkin' to a tone, yeah
Ten years didn't seem so long
Has it been that long, baby?
Has it been that long since I've gone?
Many days and nights have passed
Since I've seen you, mama
So many things have passed our eyes
Yeah
A rings has come and gone
From my finger, baby
I've stumbled, fallen down
Yes, I've even cried
It's been ten years
Since I've seen you. baby
Since I've promised you the moon
Yeah-yeah-yeah
It's been that long since I've whispered
In your ear, baby
Let's celebrate now that we're home
♪
It's been a long time since I've seen you
♪
Yeah, come on
You're a memory (you're a memory)
From the past (from the past)
That'll always last (you'll always last, yeah)
But life goes on (life goes on)
But it's been so long, baby (so long)
Oh, it's been so long (so long, so long)
Oh, it's been so long (so long)
Ten years don't seem so long
It's ten, ten, ten, ten years
I think about the past
It's gone away to fast
I'm still the same human being, yeah-yeah
I've traveled many miles
And I'm just wild
I've learned about the things I say, yeah-yeah
It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby
Since I've promised you the moon
Yeah-yeah-yeah
It's been that long
Since I've whispered sweet in your ear
Let's celebrate now that we're home
Yeah-yeah-yeah
It's been ten years since I've seen you, baby
Since I've promised you the moon
It's been that long since I've whispered in your ear
Maybe I'll call you or just sing a song
