You light up another cigarette and I pour the wine It's four o'clock in the morning and it's starting to get light Now I'm right where I wanna be, losing track of time But I wish that it was still last night You look like you're in another world but I can read your mind How can you be so far away, lying by my side When I go away I'll miss you and I will be thinking of you Every night and day Just promise me you'll wait for me 'Cause I'll be saving all my love for you And I will be home soon Promise me you'll wait for me I need to know you feel the same way too And I'll be home, I'll be home soon When I go away I'll miss you and I will be thinking of you Every night and day Just promise me you'll wait for me 'Cause I'll be saving all my love for you And I will be home soon Promise me you'll wait for me I need to know you feel the same way too And I'll be home, I'll be home Promise me you'll wait for me 'Cause I'll be saving all my love for you And I will be home soon Promise me you'll wait for me I need to know you feel the same way too And I'll be home, I'll be home soon
