| Steaks are getting cold on the table
|
| I’ve got the TV on to «That's Incredible»
|
| In the yellow oven is hot apple pie
|
| So why isn’t he home on time?
|
| He’s working late (He's working late)
|
| And there’s nothing in the world you can do
|
| To bring him home to you
|
| When he says he’s working late
|
| When we first moved in together he just couldn’t wait
|
| To hold me in his arms, he’d never hesitate
|
| Talking words of love, making me feel like a little girl
|
| And now he’s living in another world
|
| He’s working late (He's working late)
|
| And there’s nothing in the world you can do
|
| To bring him home to you
|
| When he says he’s working late
|
| Do you give him all the love you can?
|
| Well, sometimes I guess I don’t
|
| Do you think he’s looking for something he can’t find at home?
|
| Well, the more I wonder, the less I know
|
| I just got woken up by the TV set
|
| There ain’t no more shows on and he ain’t home yet
|
| I try to close my eyes and fool myself
|
| That he would never fall in love with someone else
|
| He’s working late (He's working late)
|
| And there’s nothing in the world you can do |
| To bring him home to you
|
| When he says he’s working late
|
| (He's working late)
|
| And there’s nothing in the world you can do
|
| To bring him home to you
|
| When he says he’s working late
|
| (He's working late)
|
| Oh, I know he’s working
|
| (He's working late)
|
| Well, he just better be working late |
