You're a thousand miles away
Oh, and I still have your love
To remember you by
So, my darling, dry your eyes
Daddy's coming home soon (to see the baby, oo, girl)
On my knees everyday (baby)
All I do is pray; baby just hold me (you babe)
Hope you always want me to (me babe)
He's coming home soon
It may be on a Sunday morning (baby, when I'm with you)
It may be on a Tuesday afternoon (surely, I will see you soon)
And no matter what the day is
I'm going to make it my business
To get home to you
A thousand miles away
Oh-oh, but I still have your love
To remember you by
So, my darling, dry your eyes
Daddy's coming home soon
Thousand miles away (oo, girl) (oo, girl)
Thousand miles away
You're still my baby (baby, baby, baby)
Thousand miles away (oo) (oo, girl)
Thousand miles away
