I'll be here waiting

Waiting for that next ring of the phone.
Wishing you'd say you're coming home.

All I can do is wait and be strong,
And pray that you won't be gone for that long.

The kids really miss you,
So do I,
It's nothing new for me to break down and cry.

I know that you love me,
That I'm in your heart,
I know being away is tearing you apart.

Just keep your mind on the road.
Sooner or later you'll find the one that brings you home.

And I'll be here waiting,
With my arms open wide,
And I'll hold you close,
Until you take your next ride.
