I’ll be home, my darling
Please wait for me (wait for me)
We’ll stroll along together
Once more our love will be free
At the corner drugstore
Each Saturday we would meet (we would meet)
I’d walk you home in the moonlight
All of these things we’ll repeat
So darling, as I write this letter
Here’s hoping you’re thinking of me My mind’s made up.
So long until I’ll be home to start serving you
I’ll be home, my darling
Please wait for me (wait for me)
I’d walk you home in the moonlight
Once more our love will be free
SPOKEN: Darling, as I write this letter, here’s hoping you’re thinking of Mind’s made up. so long until I’ll be home to start serving you.
I’ll be home, my darling
Please wait for me (wait for me)
I’ll walk you home in the moonlight
Once more our love will be free
