Lyrics

So my baby's on the road
Doing business, selling loads
Charming everyone there
With the sweetest smile

Oh tonight
I miss you
Oh tonight
I wish you
Could be here with me but
I won't see you
Till you've made it back again

Home and dry
Home and dry

There's a 'plane at JFK
To fly you back from far away
All those dark and frantic
Trans-Atlantic miles

Far away
Through night and day
You fly long-haul tonight
Come to me

You know I'll be here
When you call tonight

Home and dry
Home and dry
Home and dry
Home and dry

Your baby waits
Tonight
Your baby waits
Tonight
