I love the way you sound excited
|
When we speak together on the phone
|
You say how much the kids do miss me
|
And how you hope I will soon be home.
|
|
Well ev'rything I do I do because I love you so
|
It may not be apparent to you but I'm sure you know
|
Oh, oh, oh, ho
|
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
|
|
I love the way you write your letters
|
And explain the garden's overgrown
|
You list a thousand jobs that wait for me
|
And is it lonely on your own?
|
|
You say you keep yourself to yourself and I do the same
|
Well maybe just occasionally we could entertain
|
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
|
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
|
|
Though it's a long way
|
From me - to you
|
You seem so very close
|
Is it the same - for you?
|
|
The future's looking very rosy
|
Just as long as you will wait for me
|
Then ev'rything could be tea cosy
|
And that's how we'd like it to be.
