Homeward Bound

Staring at an empty table Fixed supper for my baby and me He said he'd be home by seven But it's almost ten You see I bet he's driving his long way home Getting off where the crossroad meets Pours himself a whiskey or two Cause that's what he needs One by one I'm blowing out the candles I won't lock the door for the night Tomorrow he'll be back again And we will make things right These are my lonely nights After lonely fights While I'm crying myself to sleep tonight I know that he's in doubt But he will come around With the sound of his footsteps He's making his homeward bound Laying on your side of the bed While I'm praying to the silent moon The Texas sky seems bigger when I'm sharing this bed with you One by one I'm blowing out the candles I won't lock the door for the night Tomorrow he'll be back again And we will make things right These are my lonely nights After lonely fights While I'm crying myself to sleep tonight I know that he's in doubt But he will come around With the sound of his footsteps He's making his homeward bound I hope he's on his way Babe please, please come home Don't stop fighting for me While you're out there on the road These are my lonely nights After lonely fights While I'm crying myself to sleep tonight I know that he's in doubt But he will come around With the sound of his footsteps He's making his homeward bound With the sound of his footsteps He's making his homeward bound
