"It's Been A Long Long Time" lyrics

Let me take your coat my friend, you must be tired
Lord, it's been a long, long time
Let me hold your hands in mine, it's been a while
Lord, it's been a long, long time

Come sit down by the fire, and we'll talk a while
Lord, it's been a long, long time
Holdin' you like I used to do, a precious smile
Lord, it's been a long, long time

Looks like time has been good to you
It's good to have you back again
Night and day I have thought of you
It's good to have you back, my friend

I'm anxious to see your face in the morning sun
Lord, it's been a long, long time
You'll find our room still looks the same
Lord, it's been a long, long time
