Comin’ Home Alone

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dinner and cards at my best friend's house Is lately what I call my big night out And the man at the corner news stand Says I'm his best customer [Verse 2] My evenin's are planned for me by the TV Guide But it keeps me from takin' up some young man's time And him takin' up mine Oh, that's meant for you, babe [Chorus] So, darlin', finish your scoop, I'll wait for you You gave me somethin' to hold on to And it's made me so strong 'Cause as long as I can come home in love Well, I'll never mind comin' home alone [Verse 3] You know, this ol' place could use a new face Sometimes I feel like a woman goin' to waste Though I know it's only a matter of days And lonely nighttimes [Verse 4] For as sure as the leaves return to the trees And my window fills with a summer breeze You'll surely be here with me Oh, and I want you babe [Chorus] So, darlin', finish your scoop, I'll wait for you You gave me somethin' to hold on to And it's made me so strong 'Cause as long as I can come home in love Well I'll never mind comin' home alone [Chorus] No, darlin', finish your scoop and I'll wait for you You gave me somethin' to hold on to And it's made me so strong, baby 'Cause as long as I can come home in love Well I'll never mind, ah, comin' home alone
