Ooh, hoo
Hey, hey, hey
Distant lover, lover (Lover, lover, lover)
Ooh-hoo, so many miles away
Ooh-hoo, heaven knows that I long for you
Every night (Every night)
Every night (Every night)
Sometimes again through the day
Ooh, distant lover
Ooh, hoo, hoo, lover
You should think about me and say a prayer for me
Mmm, please, please, baby
Think about me sometime
Think about me here, here in misery
Misery
As I reminisce through our joyful summers together
Promises we made of a daily letter
Then all of a sudden everything seemed to explode, blow
Now I gaze out my window sugar, down that lonesome road
Distant lover (Lover, lover, lover)
Sugar, how can you treat my heart so mean and cruel
I'm sure you know sugar, that every moment that I spent with you
I, I treasured it like it was a precious jewel
Say you love me, say you love me, say you love me
Lord have mercy
♪
I don't know what this is that we going through
But I really think you need to come back home, baby
Got me walking around kissin' your picture
Feel like some little girl or something
Oh, baby, I know you know
Please, oh, come back, baby
Oh, oh, something I wanna say
When you left you took all of me with you
Now lord I wonder if you wanna here me screamin' and pleading
Please, oh, baby
I want you to just come back, baby, come back, baby, come back, baby
Ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo-ooh
Distant lover, how, how, how can you treat my heart, so mean, so cruel
When you know I do love you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, mmm, mmm
Hey, ooh, ooh, oh
Distant lover
