[Verse 1]
|
Woke up this morning found a letter that she wrote
|
She said she's tired that I'm always on the road
|
To hard to swallow being alone
|
She needs someone at night that she can hold
|
She must have told me a thousand times before
|
Silent cries I use to ignore
|
God knows I love her
|
Didn't mean to hurt her
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Baby I'll be
|
Sitting here waiting on you to come home again
|
I won't leave
|
Promise I'll be here to the very end
|
By your side
|
To protect you and to love you and to be with you for life
|
Come on home to me Charlene
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
She knows I really love this old music thang
|
Since I was a child it's been my dream
|
I can support her treat her and spoil her
|
You know buy her the finer things
|
But I forgot about loving her
|
Damn the money, diamonds and pearls
|
What about the hard day she had with the baby
|
All she need is for me to love her
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Promise I can't live without her
|
God knows I need her loving
|
And it hurts so bad that's she gone
|
I pray that she'll come back one day
|
In my life
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Oh oh oh
|
Sometimes I cry
|
Charlene if you're listening would you call on me
|
Because my heart is aching
|
