You stay away too long
You do this every time
Every minute sure feels like eternity
And every hour sure feel like a loss
I know I'm going to die
And I know I'll see you again
But every day gets the way of the next day
And every week takes a month just to end
How long should I keep waiting
When I think I've done my time
Can't you just say that you're coming back tonight
Sure your voice is wonderful
And I can hear you loud and clear
But I would kill just to squeeze your hand
And I would pay just to have you here
Oh baby don't you wanna come home
I'm so tired of being alone
Every minute sure feels like eternity
And every hour sure feels like a loss
How long should I keep waiting
When I think I've done my time
Can't you just say that you're coming back tonight
