It that time of the day
time to lock up
and close the home down.
as the kids are
tucked into bed
time for me to
turn in
as always
this is the time of the day
I miss you even more.
All I got left are the memories
that we shared.
you hold me in your arms
making love to me away
that no man could ever
as my eyes get tried
I start to fight
because I not ready to sleep
all I got left is to worry
are you safe
are they treat you good.
who do I say good night to
when I used to say it to you
All I got left
are pictures hang right
beside my bed
looking down on me.
All I got left
is to say good night
and I, love you
and started dreaming
of the day you come home
but until that day comes
all I got left
are the phone calls
and letters
and visited
and all I got left
is my love for you
