Charlene

Woke up this morning, found a letter that she wrote
She said she's tired that I'm always on the road
Too hard to swallow, being alone
She needs someone at night that she can hold
She must've told me a thousand times or more
Silent cries I used to ignore
God knows I love her
Didn't mean to hurt her
Baby I'll be sitting here waiting on you to come home again
(Waiting on you, babe)
I won't leave
Promise I'll be here to the very end
(I'll be here)
By your side to protect you, and to love you, and to be with you for life
Come on home to me, Charlene
She knows I really love this old music thing
Since I was a child it's been my dream
I can support her, treat her and spoil her
You know, buy her the finer things
But I forgot about loving her
Damn the money, diamonds and furs
What about the hard day she had with the baby?
All she need is for me to love her
Baby I'll be sitting here waiting on you to come home again
(I'll be waiting)
I won't leave
Promise I'll be here to the very end
(Said I promise I'll be here)
By your side to protect you, and to love you, and to be with you for life
Promise I can't live without her
God knows I need her lovin'
And it hurts so bad that she's gone away
I hope and pray she'll come back one day in my life
Baby I'll be sitting here waiting on you to come home again
(Baby, I'll be sitting here waiting, baby)
I won't leave
Promise I'll be here to the very end
(I'll be with you for life)
By your side
(Say I won't go nowhere)
To protect you and to love ayou and to be with you for life
Come on home to me Charlene
Come on home to me
Baby oh oh oh
Sometimes I cry
Charlene, if you're listening won't you call on me
Cuz my heart is aching
Call me
Come see about me
