as recorded by Ambrose

I had to call you on the phone,
Because I feel so all alone.
Don't like this being on my own,
Can't you, won't you hurry home?

I leave the door unlocked, in case
Like me, you find you're out of place.
I'd give the world to see your face,
Can't you, won't you hurry home?

I've learned a lot that I didn't know,
I was a fool when I let you go.
Since you've been gone, it's all very clear,
Life is just an empty thing without you, dear!

I made an awfully big mistake,
Oh what a difference love can make!
Please give my heart another break,
Darlin', won't you hurry home?
