Let's celebrate it
Oh, let's celebrate it

It's been a long time
Since I've seen you, baby
Then your call came across my telephone
Said old friends are meeting
Will you come up maybe
I said I'll try to make it
You left me talking to a tone

Ten years didn't seem so long
Has it been that long, baby
Has it been that long since I've
Gone away

Many days and nights have passed
Since I've seen you, mama
So many things have passed our eyes
A ring has come and gone
From my finger, baby
I've stumbled, fallen down
Yes, I've even cried

It's been ten years
Since I've seen you, baby
Since I've promised you the moon
It's been that long
Since I've whispered in your ear, baby
Let's celebrate now that we're home

It's been a long time
Since I've seen you

(You're a memory) you're a memory
(From the past) from the past
(That'll always last) you'll always last
(But life goes on) life goes on
(But it's been so long, baby) so long, so long
(Oh, it's been so long) so long
(Oh, it's been so long) so long
(Ten years don't seem so long)
Ten years, ten years, ten years, ten years

I think about the past
It's gone away so fast
I'm still the same human being
I've traveled many miles
And I'm just wild
I've learned about the things I've seen

It's been ten years
Since I've seen you, baby
Since I've promised you the moon
It's been that long
Since I've whispered sweet in your ear
Let's celebrate now that we're home

It's been ten years
Since I've seen you, baby
Since I've promised you the moon
It's been that long
Since I've whispered in your ear
Maybe I'll call ya
Or just see ya soon
