Got my baby on the phone at last this morning



"Honey I miss you more than I can say"



She said "Dont you worry darling



Im leaving here right away



I know you know Ive done you right



and Ill be home again tonight"







I said "When you get back Ill cook your supper"



She told me, "Darling, dont make no fuss"



I said "Ill get some champagne". She said "I dont need it -



all I need is the one I trust.



You know I know youve done me right



and Ill be home again tonight"







Everybody understands about separation



Whichever one of us is too many miles away



And thought you realise the reason



Still you count those hours and days



We all know what it takes to make it right



These words Ill be home again tonight
