(Guitar intro)

Let's celebrate

Yeah-ah-yeah
Yeah, yeah
Oh

Let's celebrate
Yeah


It's been a long time
Since I've seen you baby
But then your call

Came across my telephone
Instead of friends
Oh, baby

Will you come up
Maybe
I still tried to make it

You left me talkin' to a tone
Yeah


Ten years didn't seem that long
Has it been that long
Baby

Has it been that long
Since I've gone


Many days and nights
Have passed
Since I've seen you

Mama
So many things
Have passed

A-our eyes
A rings has come and gone
From my finger, baby

I've stumbled
Fallen down
Yes, I've even cried


It's been ten years
Since I've seen you

Baby
Since I've promised
You the moon

Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's been that long
Since I've whispered

Sweet in your ear
Let's celebrate now
That we're home


It's been a long time since
I've seen you


Yeah, yeah


You're a memory
(You're a memory)
From the past

That'll always last
(You'll always last)

But life goes on
(Life goes on)
Oh, it's been

So long

Oh, it's been

So long
(So long)
Ten years don't seem

Don't seem that long
Ten years don't seem t
That long

(Ten, ten, ten
Ten years)

I think about the past
It's gone away to fast

I'm still
The same human being
Yeah-ah-yeah
I've traveled many miles
And I'm just wild

I've learned about the
Things I* say
Ah

It's been ten years
Since I've seen you
Baby

You the moon

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Since I've seen you
Baby
Since I've promised
You the moon
Yeah, yeah, yeah

It's been that long
Since I've whispered
Sweet in your ear

Maybe I'll call you
Or just sing a* song


*As with the "I", Duff's slurred pronounciation makes this an either or of "this" or "a". Pronouncce is as "ah" but with a slight "th" at the beginning, which is rolled with the "sing-k" before it, as his Washington accent make his "ing"'s end with a slight "k".
*This could possibly be you but due to his naturally slurred pronounciation many proper nouns on the album became ambiguous. Pronounced as "ah" with a very slight "yuh" at the beginning.
