Handbag leather 

won't make her feel better

what she really wants is for 

us to be together


sweet talk late night

over the phone

it's not bad but it's not 

the same as being home


when i think to myself 

her long kisses do pull me in

i start to miss her again

start wondering, how long has it been?


let the woman i love

just walk in

that's what i need

please, if the woman i love could

just walk in

that would be good for me


(let the woman i love

let the woman i love

let the woman i love

walk in, walk in)


i can see her in her 

high heel walking people 

stealing a look as she 

digs in her pocketbook


it's strange to me 

i still can't believe

how the girl ended up with a

minister's son like me


another night i haven't spoken to her

another hotel bed

and she's stuck in my head

and my heart, it's been hanging by a thread
