(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger, 1980)
The rain poured down the wind swept avenue
on another dark wet december afternoon
all my cherished memories are of you
all my warmth and comfort stayed with you
I would have wrote you a letter
but the telephone calls are free
cause the boys in the next apartment
are working all day
they're a great bunch of guys
but i think they're all gay
what am i doing
avoiding what i'm trying to say
Oh god i wish i was home tonight
with you in my arms
oh god i wish i was home tonight
Send me a naked picture
by the u.s. mail
write a pornographic letter
you know i won't tell
keep your legs closed tight
keep your body under lock and key
stay home at night
and save all the best parts for me
Yeah baby
oh god i wish i was home tonight
yes i do baby
oh god i wish i was home tonight, oh
I could be home in time for christmas
if you want me to be
there's a plane leaves here at midnight
arriving at three
but i'm a bit financially embarrased
i must admit
to tell you the truth my honey
i haven't a cent
Oh god i wish i was home tonight
tonight baby
oh god i wish i was home tonight
Guess i'd better ring off
before the boys get home
my regards to all your family
and everyone at home
there's a lump comes in my throat
and a tear i can't hide
cause i want to see you so badly
i just may die
and you know why baby
Oh god i wish i was home tonight
with the ones that i love
oh god i wish i was home tonight
oh god i wish i was home tonight
oh my god i wish i was home tonight
tonight, tonight
I've been hearing voices
out on the street
they say you've found some one else
who's really quite neat
but he doesn't move you like i do
tell me what i wanna hear
that it just ain't true

Rod Stewart
