lyrics

Yes it's been awhile since I've seen that little face
Yes it's been awhile since you pinched me on the cheek
You do these things
Just like on a movie screen
Yes it's been awhile since we were walking down the street
You point out a distraction
Then ya stick a foot out and trip me
You do these things
Pretty much always pickin on me

I don't know how I
Came to meet my match but now I'm getting you back
It's been a long ride
Across a couple of states
And I've been keeping you waitin
You don't know how wide
I smile
When I get to thinkin of the last time
You were drivin’ me wild
Its been awhile
But it won't be long now, child

Yes it's been awhile since ya woke up next to me
Look a little grumpy, I get up and make you tea
We do these things
Treat each other very nicely, yeah
Well I made a little money on the road, so unexpected
Shoulda put it in the bank, but I decided to get you presents
I love you, babe
Nobody said we can't have nice things

I don't know how I
Became so fortunate to
Live my life with you in it
I do try
My very best to express
How much I miss you
Even when I'm ain’t with you
I’m still your guy

I say I'm driving to the city in the morning
They keep asking me why
I say, "its been awhile"
But it won't be long now child

It won't be long
(It won't be long)
It won't be long
(It won't be long)
It won't be long
(It won't be long)
It won't be long
(It won't be long)

You stay true
I know you can't walk out the door in this city
Without some boy lookin at you
I'm no fool
Hell, I'd be lookin at you too
If I was on the same street wearing his shoes
Its been awhile
No, but it won't be long now child
Yeah, well it's been awhile
But it won't be long now, child
