'Long About Now

Tony Bennett

I Wanna Be Around, 1963, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Long about now, my woman's waking
Shaking the sleep from out of her eyes
Smiling a smile so warm
That smile is making the morning sun
Ashamed to rise
Long about now, my woman's bending
Tending the fire and setting the bread
Starting a song so sweet
That at its ending, the fire is burning extra red
Long about now, my woman's waiting
Shading the sun from off of her brow
Searching the winding road with eyes that try to find me
And longing after me, long about now
Long about now, long about now
