As this day finally fades
Into a moonlit night
I climb aboard that airplane
And disappear from sight.
I watch you through my window.
I wave and try to smile.
I told you just before I left
It was only for a while.
And now I’m on a plane again.
I’m coming home to you.
I’ve been so lonely while away.
I’ve missed your love so true.
I promise that I’ll never leave,
Unless you are with me.
‘Cause right here by my side is where
I feel that you should be.
