has it only been a day since you began to pack your things has it only been a week since you told me you had to leave and has it only been a month since i asked you what was wrong has it only been a year since i first held you my dear so little time to say i love you so little time to say goodbye and i hope you will be faithful or at least i hope you ll try cause i don t know how long i can be alone this song goes on and on when you re not home it s been the longest year since you left me here this month s goin on and on since you told me you were wrong and these week s been oh so slow since you said that you d come home now i only have a day to wait to kiss when you step off the plane now i don t mind if time goes fast or slow we ll take all the clocks off the walls when we get home
