40 Days & 40 Nights

I been out in the desert
I have wandered on through the sands
I been burned, I been thirsty
I’ve walked with the devil through dangerous lands
I have seen with my eyes
Images I wish I could erase
I have danced with lady temptation
I've felt her fire, I have seen her face
Well, I can’t make it
I won’t last another day
Hmm, 'cause each day is torture
Baby, each day is torture when you’re away
I can’t do without you
My lover, my partner, my friend
And now that you’re gone
Each moment's so long
I can’t wait till you come back again

Oh

I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights
I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights
I have been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights
I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights

Earlier today, heard somebody say
He didn’t believe that true love exists anyway
And earlier today, oh!
Heard that same man say
That any man is a liar
Who says he desires
To be with one woman
The rest of his days
Well, I don’t know
How the future is going to unfold
Hmm, and I don’t know
Just how we’re gonna feel when we get old
But there’s one thing, baby
Honey, one thing I'm certain is true
I have tried it out, I can’t
Do without no, I don’t want to live without you

I been missing my woman (I been missing my woman)
40 days and 40 nights (40 days and 40 nights)
I been missing my woman (I been missing my woman)
40 days and 40 nights
I been missing my woman (I been missing my woman)
40 days and 40 nights (40 days and 40 nights)
I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights

I been lost out at sea
Rocked the boat, felt the sting of the rain
I was surrounded by couples
I felt loneliness I could never explain
I have felt in my heart
The flood of despair overtake
Not knowing for sure if I could endure
Overwhelmed by the value of what was at stake

Well, I can’t make it
I won’t last another day
Hmm, 'cause each day is torture
Baby, each day is torture when you’re away
I can’t do without you
My lover, my partner, my friend
And now that you’re gone
Each moment's so long
I can’t wait till you come back again

40 days and 40 nights I been
I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights
I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights
I have been missing my woman (I been missing my woman)
40 days and 40 nights
I been missing my woman
40 days and 40 nights
