I keep thinkin' any minute you'll be comin' home honey
I ain't seen nothin' of you in a month of Sundays
Tell me how long gone you gonna be
All you said was you had to get goin'
Oh, but baby I wouldn't mind knowin'
How long gone you gonna be
How I'm supposed to make any plans
When I still don't even understand
If you even gonna come on back (home) to me
Tell me please
How long gone you gonna be
Maybe I didn't pay enough attention
But I do believe you forgot to mention honey
How long gone you gonna be
Well the phone ain't ringin' cause you still ain't callin'
And I ain't been hearin' your footsteps fallin'
Tell me how long gone you gonna be
How I'm supposed to make any plans
When I still don't even understand
If you even gonna come on back (home) to me
Tell me please
How long gone you gonna be
Tell me how long gone you gonna be
