Can’t Get Home Lyrics

I flew to Auckland and I crossed the world
I left my lover, she′s my special girl
Over there I was almost always alone
Then I'm lying thinking, wonder why I can′t get home
I wonder why, I wonder why I can't get home
Heavy drinks, forty winks
Writing notes, so remote
In and out, fall about
Reaching for the telephone reminds me that I'm on my own
Concentrating on the times at hand
Feeling good to be around the band
But I worry, I worry when I can′t get home
I′m on the road, need girlie company
There's complications here to being free
Come the dawn, too much horror to be so near
Pray for her departure, I got to get myself in gear
Lordy, I wonder what I′m doing out here
Heavy drinks, forty winks
Writing notes, so remote
In and out, fall about
Reaching for the telephone reminds me that I'm on my own
I get to thinking of the one I love
I know I′ll blow it 'til she′s high above
And that's why I worry when I can't get home
