[Verse 1]
So long
I been needin'
Your love
Hear me pleadin'
Love, my
Heart is bleedin'
Take me back where I belong
[Verse 2]
I know
Folks are sayin'
From you
I've been strayin'
But still
I keep prayin'
Take me back where I belong
[Chorus]
Oh, lonesome me
Why can't you see?
Let bygones be
Take me back where I belong
[Verse 3]
Don't be
Hesitatin'
Too long
I been waitin'
Love, I'm
Agitatin'
Take me back where I belong
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Oh, lonesome me
Why can't you see?
Let bygones be
Take me back where I belong
[Verse 4]
So long
I been needin'
Your love
Hear me pleadin'
Love, my
Heart is bleedin'
Take me back where I belong
[Verse 5]
I know
Folks are sayin'
From you
I been strayin'
But still
I keep prayin'
Take me back where I belong
[Chorus]
Oh, lonesome me
Why can't you see?
Let bygones be
Take me back where I belong
[Verse 6]
Don't be
Hesitatin'
Too long
I been waitin'
Love, I'm
Agitatin'
Take me back where I belong
[Outro]
Take me back
Take me back
Take me back
Where you know I really belong
