I see you from the sky   And I wonder how long it will take me to get home   I wait for an hour or so at the carousel   I have a cigarette to pass the time 'cause the traffic's hell      I don't want anything more   Than to see your face when you open the door   You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea   And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV      Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk   And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk   I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep   And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV      You wipe the tears from my eye   And you say that all that it takes is a phone call   I cry at the thought of being alone and then   I wonder how long it will take until I'm home again      I don't want anything more   Than to see your face when you open the door   You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea   And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV      Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk   And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk   I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep   And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV      I know it doesn't seem so fair   But I'll send you a postcard when I get there      I don't want anything more   Than to see your face when you open the door   You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea   And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV      Tomorrow we'll take the dog for a walk   And in the afternoon then maybe we'll talk   I'll be exhausted so I'll probably sleep   And we'll get a Chinese and watch TV
