[Verse 1]
I like my freedom, but I'd trade some for a kiss
Little do you know how long I've been waitin' for this
When it came to my hopes, well, they left scars I won't miss
I was getting so lonely, I didn't count on, count on this

[Chorus]
Where have you been?
What took so long?
I thought I'd found you
Found out I was wrong
I almost gave up
My light was so dim
And now here you are
Oh, where have you been?

[Verse 2]
I felt it from the moment you walked in the room (Ah-ah)
Nothing could keep my eyes from driftin' over to you (Ah-ah)
When it came to the word, love, I wondered what it meant
And then you show up, makin' me believе again

[Chorus]
Where have you been? (Whеre have you been?)
What took so long? (What took so long?)
I thought I'd found you (I thought I'd found you)
Found out I was wrong (Found out I was wrong)
I almost gave up (Almost gave up)
My light was so dim (Light was so dim)
And now here you are (Now here you are)
Oh, where have you been? (Where have you been?)
Where have you been?
[Bridge]
(Ah-ah)
(Ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah)

[Chorus]
Where have you been?
What took so long?
I thought I'd found you
But I found out I was wrong
Oh, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
(Ah-ah)
(Ah-ah)
Found out I was wrong, yeah
(Ah-ah)
(Ah-ah)
Where have you been?
(Ah-ah)
Where have you been?
Where have you been?
