Someone Waiting Home lyrics

It's 5 o'clock

And everybody hurries for the door

While I lay back and hang around some more

They can rush to loved one's waiting home

But I don't wanna rush to be alone

Teasing me, the fellas start a game

Saying I've got nowhere to be

So I just make up a name

Of someone waiting patiently

Someone waiting home for me

It's 10 o'clock 

And the girls are wrapped in love

While I'm at home

Wrapped up in my heartache, all alone

Why there's no love for me,

I'll never understand

I want no more than any other woman

Tearfully, I get on my knees

And ask if something's in my destiny

Or maybe something in my past

That may be changed so there can be

Someone waiting home for me

In the morning, I drag to my car

Lost in depression

I meet with the neighbor and offer him a ride

And that special light in his smile

Offers back the impression

That love has been right in my backyard 

All of the time

And suddenly I know

My silent prayers were heard

And when the guys start in on me

I never breathe a word

That tonight there's gonna be

Someone waiting home for me

Someone waiting home

Someone waiting home

(Someone waiting home)

I'll be waiting

Patiently

For me

Oh, yeah

Someone waiting home

(I'll be waiting)

(Someone waiting home)

(Every day, girl)

For me

(Every day)

Someone waiting home

Someone waiting home

(I love you, baby)

For me

(For you, oh, yeah)

Someone waiting home

Someone waiting home

(I'll be waiting)

(Hey, baby)

(Hey, girl)

For me
