Steaks are getting cold on the table |
|
I've got the TV on to "That's Incredible" |
|
In the yellow oven is hot apple pie |
|
So why isn't he home on time? |
|
He's working late (He's working late) |
|
And there's nothing in the world you can do |
|
To bring him home to you |
|
When he says he's working late |
|
When we first moved in together he just couldn't wait |
|
To hold me in his arms, he'd never hesitate |
|
Talking words of love, making me feel like a little girl |
|
And now he's living in another world |
|
He's working late (He's working late) |
|
And there's nothing in the world you can do |
|
To bring him home to you |
|
When he says he's working late |
|
Do you give him all the love you can? |
|
Well, sometimes I guess I don't |
|
Do you think he's looking for something he can't find at home? |
|
Well, the more I wonder, the less I know |
|
I just got woken up by the TV set |
|
There ain't no more shows on and he ain't home yet |
|
I try to close my eyes and fool myself |
|
That he would never fall in love with someone else |
|
He's working late (He's working late) |
|
And there's nothing in the world you can do |
|
To bring him home to you |
|
When he says he's working late |
|
(He's working late) |
|
And there's nothing in the world you can do |
|
To bring him home to you |
|
When he says he's working late |
|
(He's working late) |
|
Oh, I know he's working |
|
(He's working late) |
|
Well, he just better be working late |
