It'd be nice feelin' my arms holdin' you tight

It'd be nice bein' with you every night

And it'd be great never havin' to wake up feelin' alone

But there's somethin' 'bout bein' gone and then commin' home



It'd be good cuddlin' any time that we like

Walk in the woods, out of the room and dimmin' the lights

But it's bein' apart that's makin' the good stay good for so long

There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone and then commin' home



There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone

When you got a good woman waitin' at home

That makes you count every mile in the road you're on

And that distance just makin' it strong

It's a feelin' I know that you've known

If you've ever been away from your lady for long

There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone and then commin' home



I guess it's them nights thinkin' of you and how it will be

Seein' the sights all in my mind at home waitin' for me

Knowin' you know I'm thinkin' of you every minute I'm gone

There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone and then commin' home



There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone

When you got a good woman waitin' at home

That makes you count every mile in the road you're on

And that distance just makin' it strong

It's a feelin' I know that you've known

If you've ever been away from your lady for long

There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone and then commin' home

There's just somethin' 'bout bein' gone and then commin' home
