Lyrics
Cast my eyes out at the new day
Watch the boats as they float ‘cross the bay
See jets paint beams in the sky
Another gorgeous day I’m hoping flies by
‘Cause I’m
Chorus
Waiting for you to come back
Yeah, I’m waiting for you to come home
Waiting for you to come back
Yeah, I’m waiting for you, waiting for you
Got a hair cut, bought new shoes
Checked my mail – still no news
Order coffee just the way I like it
I’m fine on my own, but that’s not how I want it
Chorus
It may not have seemed so
But when you left me I was crying,
“Don’t go! Don’t go!”
You know, you know
It’s not that I doubt you
It’s just no life without you
It’s no life without you
Sun is setting, had dinner with a friend
She’s doing fine – will this ever end?
You’re prob’ly waking up as I write
Well, I send you a kiss into the lonely night
Chorus
