Distant lover  lover

So many miles away
Heaven knows that I long for you

Every night  every night
And sometimes I yearn
Through the day

Distant lover

You should think about me
And say a prayer for me

Please  please baby
Think about me sometimes

Think about me here

Here in misery  misery

As I reminisce  oh baby
Through our joyful summer together
The promises we made
All the daily letters
Then  all of a sudden
Everything seemed to explode

Now  I gaze out my window
Sugar  down a lonesome road

Distant lover

Sugar  how can you treat my heart

So mean and cruel

Sugar  sugar

That every moment when I spent with you
I treasure it like it was

A precious jewel  oh baby
Lord have mercy
Oh baby  don't go

Please  come back baby
Somethin' I wanna say

When you left you took all of me with you
My Lord I wonder
Do you wanna hear me scream  plead

And please  please  oh please baby
Come back and hold me  girl
Baby please  please
