Oh God I Wish I Was Home Tonight

Lyrics

The rain poured down the wind swept avenue
 On another dark wet December afternoon
 All my cherished memories are of you
 All my warmth and comfort stayed with you
 I would have wrote you a letter
 but the telephone calls are free
 Cause the boys in the next apartment
 Are working all day
 They're a great bunch of guys
 But I think they're all gay
 What am I doing
 Avoiding what I'm trying to say
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 With you in my arms
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 Send me a naked picture
 By the U.S. mail
 Write a pornographic letter
 You know I won't tell
 Keep your legs closed tight
 keep your body under lock and key
 Stay home at night
 And save all the best parts for me
 Yeah baby
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 Yes I do baby
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight, oh
 ♪
 I could be home in time for Christmas
 If you want me to be
 There's a plane leaves here at midnight
 Arriving at three
 But I'm a bit financially embarrased
 I must admit
 To tell you the truth my honey
 I haven't a cent
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 Tonight baby
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 Guess I'd better ring off
 Before the boys get home
 My regards to all your family
 And everyone at home
 There's a lump comes in my throat
 And a tear I can't hide
 Cause I want to see you so badly
 I just may die
 And you know why baby
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 With the ones that I love
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 Oh God I wish I was home tonight
 Oh my God I wish I was home tonight
 Tonight, tonight
 I've been hearing voices
 Out on the street
 They say you've found some one else
 Who's really quite neat
 But he doesn't move you like I do
 Tell me what I wanna hear
 That it just ain't true
