She said I'm gonna miss but we'll make it through He said I'm only doing what I have to do She held on to him until security He said I'd better go, the plane's about to leave And as he walked away he could hear her say I'll be waiting for you til you come home again I'll be waiting until the miles between us end Every night I'm gonna be right here baby On my knees praying and waiting for you He called the other night to say it won't be long She said every day's forever when you're gone He said I never thought that I could love you more Now I know I do and that's worth waiting for They were both in tears And she said I'll be here And I'll be waiting for you til you come home again I'll be waiting until the miles between us end Every night I'm gonna be right here baby On my knees praying and waiting Til I can feel you in my arms And all this emptiness is gone I'll be waiting for you til you come home again I'll be waiting until the miles between us end Every night I'm gonna be right here baby On my knees praying and waiting for you I'll be waiting
