I pledge my heart, my life When you became my wife I promised all that I have To make this marriage last. You never understood me I needed you to be near me Those lonely nights by the phone I cried these tears till you came home. And all the while as I long for your warm embrace I pray the Lord that you'll be safe Oh my baby I'll be home soon And in your arms I'll be loving you. I know that things are not right My job has taken my life Those lonely nights by the phone I wish that I could be home. It doesn't have to be this way We'll choose the time, the place All that we have is here But still I'll wait for you my dear. And all the while as I long for your warm embrace I pray the Lord that you'll be safe Oh my baby I'll be home soon And in your arms I'll be loving you. We'll find our place near the sea And there we'll stay just you and me No lonely nights by the phone No more will we be all alone. And all the while as I long for your warm embrace I pray the Lord that you'll be safe Oh my baby I'll be home soon And in your arms I'll be loving you.
