Gone too long

You said you´d never love another
Sweet words, empty promises
You swore you´d always be my lover
Look close, look into my eyes
You will realize...
My heart just ain´t for hire
Times change, a new day dawned
I ain´t got time for your whim and desire
Look close, look into my eyes
You will realize (Oh oh oh oh)
Chorus:
You want my love but there´s nothing on
I wanna give but the feeling´s gone
We used to be right, baby don´t take it wrong
But you´ve been gone, gone, gone
Gone too long
While you were away, things got turned around
I found somebody who won´t bring me down
No never again
No, look into my eyes you will realize (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Chorus)
(While you were away) Oh, I learned to smile again
(While you were away) Oh, I learned to laugh again
(While you were away) Oh, baby everything´s changed
For better, I got it together
(Can´t change the way that I feel
This time my heart says it´s real)
(Chorus 2x)
Sweet words, empty promises

Look close, look into my eyes

I ain´t got time for your whim and desire
Look close, look into my eyes
You will realize (Oh oh oh oh)
Chorus:

We used to be right, baby don´t take it wrong
But you´ve been gone, gone, gone
Gone too long

I found somebody who won´t bring me down
No never again
No, look into my eyes you will realize (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

(While you were away) Oh, I learned to laugh again
(While you were away) Oh, baby everything´s changed
