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 tonig
