[Verse 1]
Crazy how right out of the blue
I bumped into you today
And I forgot the reasons why
Why I went away
Funny how fate opens that door
And destiny walks in
The only think that I know for sure
Exactly how long it's been

[Chorus]
Baby, it's been so long
Since I had you here with me
Baby, it's been so long
Baby, come to me

[Verse 2]
Do you ever think of us
And the way it used to be?
Day and night all over your touch
Of the things you do to me
They say it's just like riding a bike
Some things you never forget
You know all the things that I'd like
Let's see how much harder it gets

[Chorus]
Oh baby, 'cause it's been so long
Since I had you here with me
Baby, it's been so long
Baby, come to me

[Bridge]
They're playing our song, oh baby now
It might be wrong, oh baby now
I hope that this night don't end, oh baby but
It might be right, oh baby now
Right here tonight, oh baby now
What do you say? Can you stay?

[Chorus]
Baby, it's been so long
Since I had you here with me
Baby, it's been so long
Baby, come to me

Baby, it's been so long
Since I had you here with me
Baby, it's been so long
Baby, come to me

Baby, it's been so long
Since I had you here with me
Baby, it's been so long
Baby, come to me

Brian McKnight (born June 5, 1969) is an American R&B singer-songwriter, arranger, producer, and musician. He is a multi-instrumentalist who plays eight instruments including piano, guitar, bass guitar, percussion, trombone, tuba, flugelhorn and trumpet. He is one of the very few leggiero tenors in the pop genre. McKnight is perhaps most recognized for his strong falsetto and belting range.
