As you drive away, I watched the tail lights disappear
This old home is not the same without you here
I've fallen for a truck driving man
And I'm getting through the lonely nights the best I can

And every mile brings you closer
With every hour I'm missing you
And every day you're one day nearer
Oh darling please be home soon

Well I know it's hard when I'm out on the road
And I hate the thought of leaving you alone
I've tried other jobs but they just don't work out
And I can't wait until I turn this rig around

And every mile brings you closer
With every hour I'm missing you
And every day you're one day nearer
Oh darling I'll be home soon

All this time on my own just don't seem right
Alone again, another miss you night
I hear you whisper softly on the wind
It won't be long until I hold you once again

And every mile brings you closer
With every hour I'm missing you
And every day you're one day nearer
Oh darling please be home soon
Oh darling I'll be home soon
