I've come a long long long long way, oh yes I did Since I found a love, since I found a love But wait a minute, there's one more thing It was so hard hard, yeah, oh yeah But I've come a long, such a long long way Let me tell y'all by the stars above Let me say it one more time, by the stars above
I used to look here & there, here, there, everywhere One day that woman walked into my life, oh yeah She said "Don't worry baby, I'll make everything all right" She went on & she smoothed out all the rough roads, uh huh With lots of lovin & secure, oh yes she did & she gave me somethin' to live for I can tell the world, yeah (by the stars above)
I've come a long (long) long way (long way) Ah sometime I'm gonna cry tears of water That came runnin' out, oh yeah
