Travoltas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been gone for days
I've seen and heard a lot this time
But I still remember your face
And when I do
I feel fine, girl
Yeah when I know for sure
That I'm coming back -once more
I've been working hours
Still I stay up late
Cause I have to think about the
Things you used to say
Tell me how long
Baby tell me how long
Won't you tell me how long
I've got not much to offer
Even got no space
But let me say one thing girl
I just want to see your face
