[Verse 1]
Distant lover, lover
Ooh-hoo-hoo, so many miles away, yeah
Heaven knows, oh baby, that I long for you
(I long for you)
Every night, every night
And sometimes I yearn through the day
[Verse 2]
Distant lover (Distant lover), ooh lover (Lover)
Oh baby
You should think about me, say a prayer for me
(A prayer for me)
Please, think about me sometime (Think)
Think about me (Think)
Think about me here (Think)
Think about me here in misery
Distant lover
[Bridge]
As I reminisce
Oh, baby, through our joyful summer together
(Oh, oh baby)
The promises we made, oh baby, of the daily letter
Then all of a sudden, darling, everything seemed to explode
Now I gaze out my window, sugar, down that lonesome road
[Verse 2]
(Distant lover) Distant lover, hoo-hoo (Lover)
Tell me how can you treat my heart so mean and cruel
Didn't you know
That every moment that I spent with you, oh baby
(Treasure) I treasured
(Treasure) I treasured it
(Treasure) Like it was a precious jewel
Oh, baby
[Scatting]
Lord, have mercy
[Outro]
Oh baby, come back
Please come back, baby
There's something I wanna say
When you left, you took all of me with you
My Lord, I wonder
Do you wanna hear me scream? Oh baby
I want you to come back home (Come back)
Oh baby, come back, baby
Oh baby, come on back, girl
Oh-oh-oh, oh baby (Distant lover)
Ah yeah, ooh, ooh yeah (Lover)
Oh, why, why, why, why
Why do you treat my heart so mean, so cruel (Come back)
Oh, oh come back, baby
I don't wanna, I don't wanna lose your love
Oh, oh baby
(Distant lover) Distant lover
Why you treat me so (Lover)
