Songtexte Walkin' Back - B.J. Thomas

Tonight's the night
I swore I'd return with ecstasy
With fortune and fame
'Cause I'd made myself a name

And they'd be so proud of me
Tonight they're waiting at the airport
I'm not on the plane

'Cause I'm walking back
Empty hearted to the place where it all started
Never been so long alone, I wanna go home

Could it be my baby still has faith in me?
Could it be true after all she's been through
She's still waiting for me?
For since I've gone I haven't heard
One encouraging word

'Cause I'm walking back
Empty hearted to the place where it all started
Never been so long alone, I wanna go home

Oh, I've never been so long alone
I wanna go home
No, I never never been so long alone
I wanna go home
No, I never never been so long alone
