Have I been, have I been away, been away

There's a chance that I won't know you
Maybe I won't like you
It's a long, it's such a long
Lady it's been a long time

We were lovers in a different story
Can you duplicate it
Can we make, can we make up
Can we make up the time girl

Have I been away, have I been away
Have I been away, have I been away from you for too long
Have I been away, have I been away
Have I been away, I'm afraid to say that I've been away for too long

Left a message that I'd be in town, I wish I hadn't sent it
I'm playin', I'm playing, playing with disaster
You're so close, I almost feel you breathing
Making me twitchy, yeah, I want, I, I wanna, I want to be wrong girl

Have I been away, have I been away
I'm afraid to say that I've been away, away, away from you too long
Have I been away, have I been away, have I been away
I'm afraid to say that I've been away from you too long, too long

You're so close I almost feel you breathing
Making me twitchy
I want, I, I wanna, I want, I want, I want, I want
I want to be wrong girl, oh I been away, I been away
I been away, I been away from you too long

Have I been, have I been, have I been
Have I been, and I know I've been away from you too long
Oh, it's too bad, oh, it's too bad, oh, it's too bad
But I know, but I know, but I know I've been away girl

I've been away from you girl
Have I been away from you too long
Oh, I've been away, have I been away girl

Oh, it's too bad, but it's too bad
But it's too bad, too bad, too bad
Oh, but I've been away girl
