          Verse 1   See the autumn leaf as it skips across the sidewalk;
                        See the flock of birds flying south for the winter;
                        Feel the autumn breeze as it blows away the leaves;
                        It’s been a long time, SINCE YOU’VE GONE.


         Verse 2   See the pretty snowflakes floating to the sidewalk;
                       See the Christmas lights on the tree blinking on and off;
                       See the children play down the hills as they sleigh;
                       It’s been a long time, SINCE YOU’VE GONE.


        Chorus    And, oh, I’ve been sitting here.
                      Watching the seasons go by.
                      And as the frost covers up my window pane,
                      It brings a tear to my eye.

       
        Verse 3   See the pretty flowers blooming in the front yard;
                      See the flock of birds flying home for the summer;
                      I see the children play with water guns of cool spray;
                      It’s been a long time, SINCE YOU’VE GONE.


        Verse 4   See the leafy trees, dancing in the summer breeze;
                      See a couple walking hand in hand down a shady street;
                      I see the children play, takes me back to yesterdays;
                      It’s been a long time, SINCE YOU’VE GONE.


        Chorus    And, oh, I’ve been sitting here.
                      Watching the seasons go by.
                      And as the frost covers up my window pane,
                      It brings a tear to my eye.


                      Repeat Verse 1


         Coda         And I don’t think you’re ever coming home…
