I'm running up the stairs I can hardly breath again Into your arms and a perfect day From the garden where we lay With the roses all aflame You called my name and I meant to say It's been too long, so long
I looked for your face watching down from the window Wave me till I'm gone I remember the dress you wore And you're still here with me, but maybe Dorothy it's been too long, so long
Now I'm waiting in the dark In the strangeness of your bed To hide my face where you lay your head As I listen to the room And it speaks about a distance never met You were there and yet Dorothy it's been too long, so long
You left without saying goodbye And I was so impatient then Always one to cynical to pray But I talked to you today D'you hear me? Dorothy it's been too long, so long
