Put your clock back for the winter

She asks when I'll be home again?

If I could see those eyes

I know they'd cut me down to size

You're not here, when I need you



So sit and wait

And bend and break

You rise and fall

Just you, that's all

I'm here, you're there

It don't mean I don't care

I'm so sorry I was miles away

It's been a day of tiny triumphs

It's been a week spent in despair

You can't send it down a phone line

I do my best, but i'm not there



So sleep and wake

And dream up your fate

And rise and fall

Watch you grow tall

I'm here you're there

But you should know I still love you

When I am miles away



I'll be home again
