I've been listening to the sounds of the night
Waiting for you to come around and hold me tight
I've been wanting you right here by my side

I don't care what you've gotta do
Just get here in a rush
Every part of me aches for you
It keeps getting stronger; I hunger, I long for you touch

[Chorus]
Hurry home
I'm counting the minutes until you are in my arms
Hurry home as fast as you can, baby
I'll be here ready to hold you; don't take it slow
Won't ya hurry home to me?

I miss the way you laugh off the blues
The way you're there to listen when I need you to
And, baby, how I'm needing you now

I know that you'll be coming soon
It's taking way too long
I asked the man up in the moon
To send you to me instantly back to where you belong

[Chorus]

And when you come back, when you walk through that door
