   Well let me tell you if  you’re feeling alone, Instead
 of whining and  moaning. Just get  on the phone,
 tell her you’re coming home. If  you need  her,
 you should be there.
  If you scream in your  sleep, or collapse in  a
 heap.  And sponaneously weep, then  you know you’re
 in deep.  If you need her, you  should be there, go home.
 There’s nothing better than affairs of the heart.
 
 To make you feel so good, then tear you apart.
   Make up your mind and stick it out, or start again.
   You can’t imagine what  an effort it takes, when
 you make a mistake,  and you  know in the wake,
 that a heart’s going  to break. If you need  her, you
 you should be there.
  If you’re flummoxed and  flushed, and you heartbeat  is
 rushed,  then get out of the slush,  tell your dog team  to
 mush,  if you need her, you  should be there, go home.
 If you think of her as Joan of Ark,  she’s burning
 
 for you, get your car out of park. If you think of her as
 
 Catherine the Great, then you should be the horse to
 help  her meet her fate. If you need  her, you should  be
 there, go home.
   You can’t believe it,  but it’s true.  She’s
 given everything to you.  Now  take  a moment to
 be sure,  before you give it all to  her.
   Well now you’re thinking that it’s  over at last, all
 your woes in the  past. But you’re  got to be fast, put your
 foot  on the gas. If you  need her, you should  be there.
  So now you’re out from under the gun, and it’s
 over  and done. I won’t  spoil all the fun,  but if you ever
 wonder,  she’ll be there if  you need her, go home.
   If you’re lucky to be one of the few,  to find
 
 someone to tolerate you. Then I shouldn’t have to tell
 
 you again, just pack your bags and get yourself on a
 plane.
  I f you need her,  you should be there, go home.  Come
 on man.  If you need her, you  should be there,
 go home........................  F--- Ya!
