I got news today you had run away

how long, how long this time?

cried the young feline

you got some weird desire

but how long, how long will this go on?

I'll be waiting for you to come back home

Remember years ago you had told me so

your restlessness, helplessness would hinder us in time

took you by the hand and said I'd try to understand

but how long, how long will this go on?

I'll be waiting for you to come back home

Lying here alone waiting by the telephone

hope you are alright and takin' care your own

hope nobody steals ya, want ya home where I can feel ya

how long will this go on?

I'll be waiting for you to come back home

how long, how long will this go on?

I'll be waiting for you to come back home
