Homeward Bound

Staring at an empty table
Fixed supper for my baby and me
He said he'd be home by seven
But it's almost ten
You see

I bet he's driving his long way home
Getting off where the crossroad meets
Pours himself a whiskey or two
Cause that's what he needs

One by one I'm blowing out the candles
I won't lock the door for the night
Tomorrow he'll be back again
And we will make things right

These are my lonely nights
After lonely fights
While I'm crying myself to sleep tonight
I know that he's in doubt
But he will come around
With the sound of his footsteps
He's making his homeward bound

Laying on your side of the bed
While I'm praying to the silent moon
The Texas sky seems bigger when
I'm sharing this bed with you

One by one I'm blowing out the candles
I won't lock the door for the night
Tomorrow he'll be back again
And we will make things right

These are my lonely nights
After lonely fights
While I'm crying myself to sleep tonight
I know that he's in doubt
But he will come around
With the sound of his footsteps
He's making his homeward bound

I hope he's on his way
Babe please, please come home
Don't stop fighting for me
While you're out there on the road

These are my lonely nights
After lonely fights
While I'm crying myself to sleep tonight
I know that he's in doubt
But he will come around
With the sound of his footsteps
He's making his homeward bound

With the sound of his footsteps
He's making his homeward bound
