I come back, come back
you see my return
my returning face is smiling
smile of a waiting man
I be home soon soon soon
soon cry on your shoulder
your shoulder against my burning tears
tears of a waiting man
I wait every moment
I wait, wait for my chance
I wait for my friend to say
hello, you waiting man
feel no fret feel no fret feel no fret
you can wait and feel no fret
and so I wait so I wait so I wait
I wait
I return face is smiling
be home soon, cry on your shoulder
tears of a waiting man
every moment wait for my chance
my friend say hello, feel no fret
you can wait and I wait and I wait
