Lyrics You've Been Gone Too Long - Original - Ann Sexton

You've Been Gone Too Long - Original

The smile on your face baby
It’s not there anymore, no
And the thrill of a kiss honey
Is not like it was before
I know you been runnin and runnin
Yes I know, oh yeah
Because the look on your face, baby
Look kinda short oh yeah
You might as well run on
Cause baby you’ve been gone too long
And ain’t no use in coming home
Cause Jody got your girl gone
Go on, ah yeah
You’ve been gone too long
Yeah
The way you used to hold me
When we were all alone
It’s not there anymore babe
Cause baby the thrill is gone
But somehow it doesn’t matter
Beause I found a man who love me better
Go on, ah yeah
You’ve been gone too long
Yeah
You might as well run on
Cause baby you’ve been gone too long
And ain’t no use in coming home
Cause Jody got your girl gone
Go on, ah yeah
You’ve been gone too long
Yeah
I said Jody’s got your girl and gone
