As I wake up I see you
I smile and sneak out of bed
An early meeting to get too
And a family to get home too

I’ll be back to you later
To share our love again
But first I must get home
To get up with my wife in her bed

I tell her I work late
Meetings until dawn
All for me and you
To share our love so strong

I want to leave them soon
But they need me so
I should tell them soon
I really want to go
