You know, when you're in love and your lover leaves you And you've got nobody, the lonely hours over here Sittin' home and thinkin', you say: Distant lover, darlin', ooo hoo hoo So many miles away, ooo please Oh please, baby, think about me Hey, in misery Oh say, baby, as I reminisce about your life That we shared together The promises we made, baby Of the day you left, child Then all of a sudden, if it may seem to explode Now I gaze out my window, sugar, down a lonesome road, ooo Distant lover, ooo, sugar How can you treat my heart so mean and cruel Didn't you know, sugar, that I dream Of what I spent with you I treasure it like it was a precious jewel, oh baby Lord have mercy! Oh baby, don't go Please come back, baby Ooo, something I wanna say When you left to go away No 'ther do I want, do you wanna have me plead and scream Please! Please, oh please baby Come back home, girl
