Chinese

I see you from the sky

And I wonder how long it will take me to get home

I wait for an hour or so at the carousel

I have a cigarette to pass the time 'cause the traffic's hell

I don't want anything more

Than to see your face when you open the door

You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea

And we'll get Chinese and watch TV

Tomorrow, we'll take the dog for a walk

And in the afternoon, then maybe we'll talk

I'll be exhausted, so I'll probably sleep

And we'll get Chinese and watch TV

You wipe the tears from my eye

And you say that all that it takes is a phone call

I cry at the thought of being alone and then

I wonder how long it'll take till I'm home again

I don't want anything more

Than to see your face when you open the door

You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea

And we'll get Chinese and watch TV

Tomorrow, we'll take the dog for a walk

And in the afternoon, then maybe we'll talk

I'll be exhausted, so I'll probably sleep

And we'll get Chinese and watch TV

I know it doesn't seem so fair

But I'll send you a postcard when I get there

I don't want anything more

Than to see your face when you open the door

You'll make me beans on toast and a nice cup of tea

And we'll get Chinese and watch TV

Tomorrow, we'll take the dog for a walk

And in the afternoon, then maybe we'll talk

I'll be exhausted, so I'll probably sleep

And we'll get Chinese and watch TV
