The rain poured down the wind-swept Avenue

On another dark wet December-afternoon.

AII my cherished memories are of you



AII my warmth and comfort stayed with you.

I would have wrote you a letter

But the telephone calls are free



'cos the boys in the next apartment

Are working all day.

They're a great bunch of guys

But I think they're all gay.

What am I doing avoiding what I'm trying to say?

Oh God

I wish I was home tonight -

With you in my arms.

But oh God

I wish I was home tonight.

Send me a naked picture by the U.S.Mail



Write a pornographic letter - you know I won't tell.

Keep you're legs closed tight



Keep your body under lock and key



Stay home at night and

Save all the best parts for me - yeah

baby.

Oh God

I wish I was home tonight -

Yes

I do

baby



Oh God

I wish I was home tonight.

I could be home in time for Christmas

If you want me to be



There's a plane leaves here at midnight



Arriving at three.

But I'm a bit financially embarassed I must admit



To tell you the truth

my honey - I haven't a cent.

Oh God

I wish I was home tonight - tonight

baby



Oh God

I wish I was home tonight.

Guess I'd better ring off before the boys get home



My regards to all your family and everyone at home



There's a lump comes in my throat and a tear I can't hide



'cos I want to see you so badly I just may die.



Oh God

I wish I was home tonight - with the ones that I love



Oh God

I wish I was home tonight



Oh God

I wish I was home tonight



Oh my God

I wish I was home toniclht.
