Baby, it's gonna take a little bit lo-onger
For me to ever get you off of my mind
Baby, it's gonna take a little bit lo-o-o-nger
'Cause I've been lovin' you a long-long time
People try to tell me that it won't be lo-ong
'Til I won't even miss your anymore
But I can tell there must be something mighty wro-ong
'Cause everyday I want you even more
And baby, it's gonna take a little bit lo-onger
For me to ever get you off of my mind
Baby, it's gonna take a little bit lo-o-onger
'Cause I've been lovin' you a long-long time
They say this lonely feelin', that it'll go away-ay
But after all this time now, it ain't gone
Every wakin' moment and every night in bay-ay
Just seems to keep on keepin' on
And baby, it's gonna take a little bit lo-onger
For me to ever get you off of my mind
Baby, it's gonna take a little bit lo-o-onger
'Cause I've been lovin' you a long-long time
'Cause I've been lovin' you a long-long ti-i-i-i-ime...
