Been Too Long
(Langan/Smith)

Verse 1

She was sitting at the bar twisting her ring
I said “bartender buy that lady a drink”
One nervous smile and she raised her glass
So I walked on over said
“Mame I just got to ask”

Pre-chorus 1
“What kind a fool would leave you alone?”
 Said she “the kind that makes you drive and not find your way home”
 If she were my wife I’d be sitting here with her   
A few more drinks and I leaned down and kissed her and she said it’s

Chorus
Been too long
Forgot I even missed it
My head is spinning  
My heart is falling with it
I should slow down
Not sure I can resist it
 It’s been too long
Since somebody kissed me like that

Verse 2
A slow song was playing and I asked her to dance
She didn’t say yes she just took my hand
Put her head on my shoulder as tears rolled down her cheek 

Pre-chorus 2
And I said “Are you OK?”
 and pulled her close to me and she said its

(Repeat Chorus)

(Lead)

Verse 3
Last call came and went it was time to leave
Walked her to her car and she looked up at me
We didn’t say a word or step further across that line  

Pre-chorus 3
And she drove away
Her words burned in my mind
Guess we all need to feel wanted sometimes Yeah it had

Last Chorus
Been too long
Forgot I even missed it
My head was spinning 
My heart was falling with it
Had to slow down
Glad I could resist it
It had been too long
Since somebody kissed me like that
