I'm sorry baby, but i can't afford to stay.
your good, kind treatment will worry me someday.
i love you baby, but i'm gonna have to say goodbye.
woman, i got to move, i really got to fly.

same thing every morning,
tell me what's it all about.
i get those same old blues every night.

i miss you already, baby, more than words can say.
seems like i've been gone twenty-four hours, more like a million days.
i love you baby, you know i woudn't tell you no lies.
if you don't believe i love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes.

chorus
Here i am back home, baby, i'm back home to stay.
i love you babe, never more will i go away.
i won't hurt you no more, baby, ain't gonna tell you no more lies.
no more running 'round, no more phony alibis.
