my love i sin America
my love is in america
and i miss him tonight
so much so
i feel like taking the money weve saved
and catching the flight
and catching the flight
the children are sleeping well
and im on my own
even though ive read his letters
again and again, im alone, im all alone
but the money ive sent home is barely enough
theres an ocean that keeps us apart
ive been lonely from home, but i mustnt give up
what about this aching heart?
johnny come home, i need you tonight
i need you tonight
my love is in america
but its hard to go out
just because certain asumptions are made
when your mans not about
when your mans not about
my love is in america
and im not so sure
maybe i rather him here in my arms
and us to be poor
and us to be poor
still the money i send home
is barely enough
theres an ocean that keeps us apart
ive been aching for home
but i mustnt give up
what about this aching heart?
johnny come home, i need you tonight
i need you tonight (i need you tonight)
johhny come home, i need you tonight
i need you tonight (i need you tonight)
johnny come home, i need you tonight
i need you tonight (i need you tonight)
