I see you from the sky
and I wonder how long
it will take me to get home
I wait for an hour or so
at the carousel
I have a cigarette to pass the time
'cause the traffic's hell
Aaaaaah
I don't want anything more
than to see your face
when you open the door
You'll make me beans on toast
and a nice cup of tea
and we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
and in the afternoon
then maybe we'll talk
I'll be exhausted
so I'll probably sleep
And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
You wipe the tears from my eye
and you say that all that it takes
is a phone call
I cry at the thought of being alone
and then
I wonder how long it'll take
till I'm home again
Aaaaaah
I don't want anything more
than to see your face
when you open the door
You'll make me beans on toast
and a nice cup of tea
and we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
and in the afternoon
then maybe we'll talk
I'll be exhausted
so I'll probably sleep
and we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
I know it doesn't seem so fair
but I'll send you a postcard
when I get there
I don't want anything more
than to see your face
when you open the door
You'll make me beans on toast
and a nice cup of tea
and we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk
and in the afternoon
then maybe we'll talk
I'll be exhausted
so I'll probably sleep
and we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
