(Alice Cooper / Bernie Taupin / Dick Wagner)



Dear darlin' surprised to hear from me?

Bet you're sittin' drinkin' coffee, yawnin' sleepily

Just to let you know

I'm gonna be home soon

I'm kinda awkward and afraid

Time has changed your point of view

Chorus:

How you gonna see me now

Please don't see me ugly babe

'Cause I know I let you down

In oh so many ways

How you gonna see me now

Since we've been on our own

Are you gonna love the man

When the man gets home



Listen darlin' now I'm heading for the west

Straightened out my head but my old heart is still a mess

Yes I'm worried honey

Guess that's natural though

It's like I'm waiting for a welcome sign

Like a hobo in the snow



Chorus



And just like the first time

We're just strangers again

I might have grown out of style

In the place I've been

And just like the first time

I'll be shakin' inside

When I walk in the door

There'll be no place to hide



Chorus
