Where have you been, my long lost friend?
Somehow I knew one day you'd come back again
Could it be you've dropped by to tell another lie?
Or could it be you wanna tell me you're sorry?
(I've been a fool; forgive this fool)
If you thought you could walk in here
Like you walked out, then you're the fool of the year
So please don't waste my time; you are no longer mine
& if I'm hurting you, well baby, I'm sorry
(Please, please, take me back again
For I've always loved you & will till the end of time)
Yes, yes, I've heard that before
But my heart can't hear you anymore
(repeat & fade):
(I'm sorry, dear, so sorry, dear)
