Dear, lover
It's been seven weeks and a day and 22 hours
Since you stepped on a plane and left me with flowers
The Champs-Elysées, a whole world away from home
Where I lay, lonely bones
And I wait by the phone

Your night is my day when you are so far away
And it's hard to sleep all alone
If you're feeling tempted to stay, listen to me when I say
That Paris can't have you
'Cause Los Angeles needs you home

Oh, honey, how much longer now 'til you've done what you went to do?
I am strong but there are some things, without you
That lie here undone and I have begun
To fancy the night of your landing
When I'll have my man
But until then

Your night is my day when you are so far away
And it's hard to sleep all alone
If you're feeling tempted to stay, listen to me when I say
That Paris can't have you
'Cause Los Angeles needs you home
