Hey it's been a long, long time,
Since I had you on my mind.
Woman, why you hiding out, the grass is overgrown?
I don't want to live here on my own.
I know you have your own career,
And your job's three thousand miles from here.
You send me an email and we talk on the phone,
I'd rather have you living here at home.
I'll never hurt you, I won't desert you,
I'll always treat you fine.
I'll always be beside you, I won't misguide you,
I want to make you mine.
Please tell me you're coming my way,
There's a flight almost every day.
If you can't afford the airfare I'll mail you a cheque,
A thousand bucks is nothing, what the heck.
You tell me that you really care,
It seems like a load of hot air,
You want your cake and eat it, while you're having fun I beat it,
I only want my rightful share.
I'll never hurt you, I won't desert you,
I'll always treat you fine.
I'll always be beside you, I won't misguide you,
I want to make you mine.
It's time for me and you to decide,
Do we call it a day or let it ride?
I'd like you here beside me can you sacrifice your lifestyle?
If you can't we can break up for a while.
And if I have to be here on my own,
And if I have to live here all alone,
I'll drive down to the singles bar and find myself a mate,
You know time and tide can't wait.
I'll never hurt you, I won't desert you,
I'll always treat you fine.
I'll always be beside you, I won't misguide you,
I want to make you mine.
