It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, till I belong to you.
Every night when everybody has fun
Here am I sitting all on my own.
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, till I belong to you.
Since you left me I'm so alone
Now you're coming, you're coming on home
I'll be good like I know I should
You're coming home, you're coming home.
Every night the tears come down from my eyes
Every day I've done nothing but cry.
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, till I belong to you.
Since you left me I'm so alone
Now you're coming, you're coming on home
I'll be good like I know I should
You're coming home, you're coming home.
So everyday we'll be happy I know
Now I know that you won't leave me no more.
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, yeah, yeah
It won't be long, yeah, till I belong to you.
