She is alone again,

wondering how her world could have been,

He's on the 'phone again,

telling her he'll be working late,

"We're gonna have a real good life,

the money keeps rolling in,

We can never really have enough, "

but he doesn't see,

What she wants is
Love and time,

dreams and affection,

Love and time,

hope and emotion;

She is alone again,

wondering how her night could have been,

He's had to go again,

leaving her at a table for two,

"I'm working on the next big thing,

this is really what I'm living for,

You can stay and have another drink, "

he just doesn't see,

What she needs is
Love and time,

dreams and affection,

Love and time,

hope and emotion;

One day he'll wake up,

and find out that she has gone away,

She'll be looking for

Love and time,

dreams and affection,

Love and time,

hope and emotion.
