Jim Ed Brown - How Long Has It Been Lyrics

(Jim Throckmorton - D. Snyder)

Saw you there on the barstool
As I walked in
And the look we gave each other
Said we both need a friend.

Is this the first time you've come here
In all the nights you've been alone
Searching for something
That just isn't at home.

How long has it been
When's the last time he kissed you
My you sure look lovely
In that dress so tight and thin.

There's a look in your eye
That cries somebody love me
And I wonder
How long has it been?

I sat down at your table
And we shared a drink or two
All the things that first look told me
Now I find are really true.

Someone's neglect has left an emptiness
Where love used to be
Then you reached out and touched my hand
Softly whispered to me.

How long has it been
When's the last time she held you?
And made you feel wanted
And needed and loved.

There's a look in your eye
That cries somebody love me
And I wonder
How long has it been?...
