[Verse 1]
Night drags on
And I waste away the day
In the quiet of dawn
I kneel alone and pray
[Pre-Chorus]
But a man can only wait
[Chorus]
So long
I've waited so long
[Verse 2]
And there, I'll see you
When the ship comes in at last
And I'll wave from the shoreline
You'll be waving from the mast
[Pre-Chorus]
But a man can only wait
[Chorus/Outro]
So long
I've waited so long
I've waited so long, so long
For you
For you
For you
For you
Baby, for you
