Right now he's looking for his pants and socks Can't find the car keys on the dresser top He'll spill his milk and leave it in the kitchen floor And as the day wears on he'll miss me more and more He'll go to work without a kiss from me it'll cross his mind he siad I'd never leave Forget his coat and catch a deaf of core And as the day wears on he'll miss me more and more He'll tell the guys he's bothered not at all Then drink his lunch so he won't have to call He'll tell himself I'm home like the day before But as the day wears on he'll doubt it more and more He'll come home to a house that's dark and quiet And has to face another sleepless night He'll watch TV and read and walk the floor And as the day wears on he'll miss me more and more And then he'll phone and ask me to come home That things have gone to pieces cause I'm gone His phonecall is all I'm waiting for Cause as the day wears on I'll miss me more and more Cause as the day wears on I'll miss me more and more
