Michael McDonald - Distant Lover lyrics
[Michael McDonald - Distant Lover lyrics]
When you're in love and your lover leaves you
And you've got nobody
The lonely hours over here
Sittin' home and thinkin', you say:
Distant lover, darlin', ooo hoo hoo
So many miles away, ooo please
Oh please, baby, think about me
Hey, in misery
Oh say, baby, as I reminisce about your life
That we shared together
The promises we made, baby
Of the day you left, child
Then all of a sudden
If it may seem to explode
Now I gaze out my window
Sugar, down a lonesome road, ooo
Distant lover, ooo, sugar
How can you treat my heart so mean and cruel
Didn't you know, sugar, that I dream
Of what I spent with you
I treasure it like it was a precious jewel
Oh baby lord have mercy!
Oh baby, don't go please come back, baby
Ooo, something I wanna say
When you left to go away no 'ther do I want
Do you wanna have me plead and scream
Please! Please, oh please baby
Come back home, girl oh baby, come back
