Once again it's twelve o'clock and you're still gone

Honey are you ever coming home

I don't mind this waiting for you while you're gone

But honey, are you ever coming home

The wind outside is cold as my poor heart inside

Honey, are you ever coming home

I love you much too much to worry 'bout my pride

But honey, are you ever coming home

Just before I tuck them in

The children question me

"Why did daddy (mommy) leave us all alone?

And I've run out of answers

You've been gone so long

Honey, are you ever coming home
