Lyrics:

[English]

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 gettin' so lonely, I didn't count on, count on this

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 out here you are

Oh, where have you been?

I felt it from the moment you walked in the room (ah)

Nothing could keep my eyes from driftin' over to you (ah)

When it came to the word "love", I wondered what it meant (ah)

And then you show up, making me believe again

Where have you been? (Where 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 out here you are (out here you are)

Oh, where have you been? (Where have you been?)

Where have you been?

...

(Ah)

(Ah)

(Ah-ah)

Where have you been?

What took so long?

I thought I'd found you

But I found out I was wrong

Oh, yeah, yeah

(Ah-ah-ah) found out I was wrong, yeah

(Ah-ah) where have you been?

(Ah-ah) where have you been, yeah

(Ah) oh, yeah, oh, yeah
