Another five weeks out on the road again, it's hard to say goodbye
It always breaks my heart to see you cry
I whisper words to reassure you, girl, that everything's all right
I hate to leave you all alone

We say a prayer before I once again walk out the door
No one else can take your place
You mean the world to me, yeah

When I get home, I'm gonna hold you in my arms
When I get home, we'll talk the night away
When I get home, I'll show you just how much I care
When I get home

There's something in the way you look at me, that tells me how you feel
The things you say show me that love is real
I can't believe the way it's killing me, whenever we're apart
I just wanna be where you are

So I call you on the phone to make sure you don't feel alone
Hold on tight to what we have
Until I'm back with you, yeah

When I get home, I'm gonna hold you in my arms
When I get home, we'll talk the night away
When I get home, I'll show you just how much I care
When I get home

Inside I die when I have to walk away
But don't cry, it's all right, my love will never change

I'll be back again in time, you'll put your hand inside of mine
We'll leave this loneliness behind
Someday soon we'll understand, just how things work out in the end
Oh, hold on

When I get home, I'm gonna hold you in my arms
When I get home, we'll talk the night away
When I get home, I'll show you just how much I care
When I get home
