Lyrics
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Anticipation of a short duration until a significant event happens
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiteration of the expectation that the awaited event is imminent
It won't be long yeah, till I belong to you
Expressing confidence that the wait will soon be over, and a sense of belonging will be achieved
Every night when everybody has fun
Observation of others having fun every night
Here am I sitting all on my own
The narrator is alone while everyone else is enjoying themselves
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiteration of the belief that the wait for a significant event is almost over
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Continued expression of anticipation for the awaited event
It won't be long yeah, till I belong to you
Confidently stating that the wait will soon end, and a connection will be established
Since you left me, I'm so alone
Feelings of loneliness and emptiness since the departure of someone important
Now you're coming, you're coming on home
Awareness of the imminent return of the person who left
I'll be good like I know I should
Commitment to behaving well upon the return, acknowledging the need for improvement
You're coming home, you're coming home
Expressing joy and readiness for the return of the person
Every night the tears come down from my eyes
Emotional distress reflected in tears shed every night
Every day I've done nothing but cry
Continuous sorrow and crying experienced every day
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiteration of the belief that the awaited event is approaching
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Continued expression of confidence in the imminent occurrence of the awaited event
It won't be long yeah, till I belong to you
Confidently stating that the wait will soon be over, leading to a sense of belonging
Since you left me, I'm so alone
Reiteration of feelings of loneliness and solitude since the departure of the person
Now you're coming, you're coming on home
Acknowledgment of the person's return, reinforcing the imminent reunion
I'll be good like I know I should
Commitment to good behavior, aligning with personal standards upon the person's return
You're coming home, you're coming home
Expressing joy and readiness for the return of the person
So every day we'll be happy I know
Hopeful anticipation of future happiness and the belief that the person will not leave again
Not I know that you won't leave me no more
Expressing confidence in the person's commitment to stay
It won't be long yeah, yeah, yeah
Reiteration of the belief that the awaited event is approaching
It won't be long yeah, yeah
Reiteration of the expectation that the awaited event is imminent
It won't be long yeah, till I belong to you, woo
Confidently stating that the wait will soon end, and a connection will be established
