BABY COME HOME

     by David D. Hambleton

 

Ev'ry Sunday morning

I look at your pillow

And think about you laying there

Fighting back a tear-drop

Playin' on my heart-string

*songs about your long brown hair*

Baby, come home; I'm missin' you again.

 

Ev'ry night I come home

And walk up to the front porch

I think about you setting there

Fighting back a tear-drop

Playin' on my heart-string

*songs for rocking in that chair

Baby, come home; I'm missin' you again.

 

Ev'ry time the clock chimes

I listen to it echo

And think about you being here

Fighting back a tear-drop

Playin' on my heart-string

*(songs about your smile and cheer)

Baby, come home; I'm missin' you again.

 

Ev'ry time the wind moans

I feel the chill in my bones

And think about you holding me.

Fighting back a tear-drop

Playin' on my heart-string

*(songs about our love, so free)

Baby, come home; I'm missin' you again.

 

Ev'ry time my eyes blink

I see you lookin' pretty

Cotton dress and soft bare feet

Fighting back a tear-drop

Playin' on my heart-string

Girl, you make my world complete

Baby, come home; I'm missin' you again.

 

Ev'ry time my heart beats

It brings another mem'ry

Of how you fulfill all my dreams

Fighting back a tear-drop

Playin' on my heart-string

*Songs of tender loving that steams*

Baby, come home; I'm missin' you again.
