Baby, it's gonna take a little bit longer For me to ever get you off of my mind Baby, it's gonna take a little bit longer 'Cause I've been lovin' you a long long time People try to tell me that it won't be long Till I won't even miss you anymore But I can tell them it must be something mighty wrong 'Cause every day I want you even more And baby, it's gonna take a little bit longer For me to ever get you off of my mind Baby, it's gonna take a little bit longer 'Cause I've been lovin' you a long long time They say this lonely feeling that it'll go away But after all this time now it ain't gone Every weaken moment and every night and day Just seems to keep on keeping on And baby, it's gonna take a little bit longer For me to ever get you off of my mind Baby, it's gonna take a little bit longer 'Cause I've been lovin' you a long long time Yes, I've been lovin' you a long long time
