Chorus
Flo):
Long gone lover, my baby is a
Long gone lover, my baby is a
Long gone lover, my baby is-a
Long gone, long gone
Verse 1 Diana :
Let me tell you that he's far far away
But I think about him every day
In my dreams at night I see his face
Ain't no other guy gonna take his place
I just kiss his letter and I feel better
Verse 2 Diana :
He's been gone for such a long long time
But you know I'm sure that he's still mine
When the things people say are hurting me
Tryin' to make me think he's deserted me
I just kiss his letter and I feel better
Wo wo wo wo oh, wo wo wo wo oh

Verse 3 Diana :
I got a letter from him just this afternoon
Tellin' me that he'll be coming soon
Whenever I'm down and feeling bad
Whenever my heart is feeling sad
I just kiss his letter and I feel better
Wo wo wo wo oh, wo wo wo wo oh
Fading sequence (Flo):
My baby's gone down the line
But I know he's still mine
I still love him, yes I love him
