It’s Been a Long, Long Time Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just kiss me once and kiss me twice, then kiss me once again
It's been a long, long time
Haven't felt like this, my dear, since can't remember when
It's been a long, long time

[Verse 2]
You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you
Or just how empty they all seemed without you
So kiss me once, then kiss me twice, then kiss me once again
It's been a long, long time

[Trumpet Solo]

[Verse 3]
Yes, kiss me once, kiss me twice, kiss me once again
It's a-been a long, long, a long, long time
Haven't felt like this, my dear, since can't remember when
It's been a long, long time

[Verse 4]
You'll never know how many dreams I've dreamed about you
Or just how empty they all seemed without you
So kiss me once and kiss me twice, kiss me once again
It's been a long, ba-ba-ba-boo time
Oh yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
