He's Not Home Yet

(Verse 1)
It's late in the day
And he's not home yet
They made plans
She wonders what made him forget
Did someone happen by and catch his eye?
She could've sworn she heard him say, "I love you..."
But maybe it was just, "Goodbye..."
Now it's late in the day...

(Verse 2)
It's the middle of the night
And he's not home yet
Sometimes her tears are hard to fight... back
When she's this upset
She can't imagine why things went so wrong
But she can't deny the fact that he should be back
And she's been waiting far too long
'Cause it's the middle of the night...

(Bridge)
She's waiting
She's watching
She's hoping
There's not something
Wrong with him
That she can't fix
He said he would be home by six
And if he had been running late
He would've called at least by eight
Not make her wait

(Verse 3)
It's early in the morning
And he's not home yet
But there's a note taped to the door
That's filled with regret
It talks about the way he made her feel
This must be what it's like to be a movie star
Who has lost her sex appeal
And it's the middle of the night
It's the middle of the night
