Lyrics:

(Chorus x2)
So kiss me, darling
It's been a long time

(Verse)
It's been a long time since
I saw you in the village playing mandolin
Something in your singing
Made my burdens lift
Hanging on to every words across your lips
Feels like a long way gone,
But I can still remember how you sang that song
Smiling, like nobody ever done you wrong
Strumming like you knew you had me all along

(Chorus x3)
So kiss me, darling
It's been a long time

(Verse)
I keep your picture close
I like to have it with me when I'm far from home
Listen, you's the hardest thing I've ever known
I hate to think about you being all alone
So I'll take the last train back
I'll wake you when I get there cause I miss you bad
I need to feel you more than I ever had
Counting every sparkle on the railroad tracks

(Chorus x3)
So kiss me, darling
It's been a long time

(Interlude)
And a thousand nights
I never dreamt a second to a better sight
And stumbling on your singing in the lone street light
Taking my worries away
Search through a thousand lights
I never found a way to make it sound just right
There'll never be a minute when I'm no surprised
To know that you still feel the same

(Chorus x6)
So kiss me, darling
It's been a long time
