[Verse 1]
You've been through some changes
I can feel it when I'm close to you
You treat me like I'm a stranger, sugar
But I've been through some changes too

[Chorus]
Hold on, gotta hold on real tight
It's been so long
Since I needed someone in my life
Like I need you, baby
Hold on, don't keep us apart
It's been so long
Since I let someone into my heart
Baby, it's been so long
Since I've been in love
Since I've been in love

[Verse 2]
I've seen some bad romances, mmm...
You could say I've had a few
But I narrowed down my chances
Now the rest is up to you

[Chorus]
Hold on, gotta hold on real tight
It's been so long
Since I needed someone in my life
Like I need you, baby
Hold on, don't keep us apart
It's been so long
Since I let someone into my heart
Baby, it's been so long
Since I've been in love
Since I've been in love, love

[Bridge]
When the feeling inside is getting stronger
You gotta learn to let it go
I don't think I can take it much longer
You've got to let it show, baby
If you're in love, then let me know, baby

[Chorus]
Hold on, don't keep us apart
It's been so long
Since I let someone into my heart
Baby, it's been so long
Since I've been in love
Since I've been in love
I'm in love, in love, in love again

Whoa-whoa, baby
It's been so long
Since I've been in love
Been in love, mmm...
I'm in love, in love, in love again
Whoa...
Been in love
Since I've been in love...
