Been Away Too Long Lyrics - Greatest Hits - Uriah Heep

I'm coming home 

I've been away far too long 

I'm leaving it up to you 

To understand 

You may wonder why 

When it was me who said 

The last goodbye 

But cannot change my mind 

One more time 

It's high time 

I can't wait any longer 

It's my time to find out 

Who I belong to 

It's breaking my heart 

Waitin' for another day 

When the time comes 

You won't see me around 

I've been patient 

Standing my ground 

Gotta see ya and hold ya 

Hear what you have to say 

Do you wake up in the morning 

Wantin' me 

The way I wake up wantin' you 

And in the same breath 

You keep hauntin' me 

Does it ever occur to you 

I've been in love too long 

To stop now, oh 

I've been away too long 

I've been away too long 

If you've ever cried 

Then you'll know the pain 

You felt inside 

And just like me you pray 

It's all untrue 

But time alone will tell 

If you have learned 

Life's lessons well 

And maybe then you'll know 

What I should do 

Been away, I've been away 

I've been away too long 

I've been away too long 

I've been away too long 

Too long, much too long 

Much too long
